Usually you do something like:

1) tar zxvf your-software.tar.gz -> this creates a your-software/ directory
2) mkdir build
3) cd build
4) cmake ../your-software
5) make
6) make install

at step 4) you may configure the install prefix with
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/where/you/want

at the same step 4) you may launch
    cmake-gui ../your-software
and chose option; install prefix etc... from the GUI instead of the
command line.

at step 6) you may try to build a package instead of installing:

for RPM: cpack -G RPM
for DEB: cpack -G DEB
for TGZ: cpack -G TGZ

then you'll be able to install the built package.

That said if you "just" want to use an up to date CMake
you should first try to use pre-compiled binaries taken from Kitware:
http://www.cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html

CMake binaries are as static as then can so it's usually enough
to unarchive the tarball somewhere and directly use the cmake (or
cpack or ctest)
binary from there.

Is anybody here using RHEL6 with recent CMake version who can help?
