Can’t find a ‘Makefile’ after configuring successfully using ccmake in build directory
(make: \*\*\* No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.)
- SLES12SP3, cmake 3.12.0 …, CMakeCache.txt exists
- Should I use ‘Ninja’?
Regards
Gert

`:/opt/paraview_build # cmake ./ > cmake.out`
`CMake Deprecation Warning at ThirdParty/IceT/vtkicet/CMakeLists.txt:14 (CMAKE_POLICY):`
`The OLD behavior for policy CMP0017 will be removed from a future version`

`The cmake-policies(7) manual explains that the OLD behaviors of all`
`policies are deprecated and that a policy should be set to OLD only under`
`specific short-term circumstances. Projects should be ported to the NEW`
`behavior and not rely on setting a policy to OLD.`
