| Summary | 0013913: Ninja: generator is not usable on Fedora | ||||||||
| Description | 'cmake -GNinja' fails on Fedora because it cannot find a program called 'ninja'. This is because, due to a packaging conflict, the ninja build tool is packaged on Fedora is installed as /usr/bin/ninja-build. It would be nice if CMake would also check for this name. | ||||||||

I would say this is a Fedora bug. You could add a symlink in /usr/local/bin. |

You could, and I have, which is why I didn't notice this until someone on the cmake users list mentioned something about cmake finding the path to ninja. However, I don't think we should require users to do that. While this could be patched in Fedora, it's entirely possible that other distributions will follow Fedora's naming convention. Also, Fedora prefers to avoid patching when possible, and I don't see the harm making this change in CMake proper for a popular distribution. |

Bug is not new any more, there was some activity. |

If this bug is tackled, another program which can run Ninja files is 'shake', so that'd be another tool to look for. |
