I have a release candidate (RC 16) for 2.6.1 ready for CMake.
If I do not get any complaints about this RC, it will become 2.6.1.
Again, if there are no major issues, I am going to make this 2.6.1 official.
Thanks.
The files can be found here:
http://www.cmake.org/files/v2.6/*RC-16*
The changes from 2.6.0 are as follows:
Changes in CMake 2.6.1 RC 16
- Fix for bug 7427, preinstall target name hard coded
- Fix issue #7088 - do not emit error messages when attempts to run
Visual Studio macros fail. You can still get the error output
as messages if you want using --debug-output from the cmake command line.
- Fix InstallRequiredSystemLibraries.cmake to work with win64
Changes in CMake 2.6.1 RC 15
- Fix bug 7426 FindJPEG module causes error when setting JPEG_LIBRARY to
blank
- Fix bug 7414 PackageMaker generator crashes when given components
with circular dependencies
- Fix source files to not add extra /, and look for extensions for
all enabled languages.
- Change link line to preserve input given to target_link_libraries even
if a shared library is repeated.
- Fix for bug 7421, fortran did not get arch flags on the mac
- For CMP0008 do not depend on the files that are not there, which
makes the Xcode generator delete executables after they are built.
- Work around Boost 1.36.0 bug fix on Darwin by setting the mangled
compiler name to -xgccVERSION
- Updated FindImageMagick to:
- Find newer additions such as animate, compare, etc.
- Find development api: Magick++, MagickCore, MagickWand
- Use FindPackageHandleStandardArgs to output standard messages.
Changes in CMake 2.6.1 RC 14
- Change dashboard submission to go directly to CDash.
- Add policy CMP0008- Full-path libraries must be a valid library file name
Changes in CMake 2.6.1 RC 12
- Fix issue with .lib being seen as .obj with VS due to a full path
to a library given without the file extension. This only worked
with the VS generator, but some projects had worked around it with
if statements. It now issues a warning, but should link.
- Update cpack stuff for beta OSX bundle generator for CPack
- CheckFortranFunctionExists.cmake now calls the function.
- FindBLAS.cmake, FindLAPACK.cmake modules were redesigned so
now you have three new variables BLA_VENDOR (you can specify the
VENDOR),
BLA_STATIC (gets the static version of libs), BLA_F95
(gets the fortran 95 interface). BLA_VENDOR can be specified as
an environment variable. Intel mkls libs need FindThreads to
be found correctly so you will need to enable the C/CXX
- FindMPI: Use the HINTS feature of find_library to find the right
libraries for MPI, and act a bit more intelligently when MPI cannot
be found.
- Improved support for finding wxWidgets in MinGW environment.
- CMAKE[_SYSTEM]_(LIBRARY|PROGRAM|INCLUDE|PREFIX)_PATH variables
moved CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING from "Variables that modify behaviour" to
"variables that Provide Information"
- handle HTML documentation for single items better: no warning about
ComputeSectionLinkPrefix, don't create an index for only one item.
- Better error messages in CPackBundleGenerator
Changes in CMake 2.6.1 RC 11
- Fix curl build issue with Xcode 3.1
Changes in CMake 2.6.1 RC 10

- Remove bad test for bug # 7316
Changes in CMake 2.6.1 RC 9

Changes in CMake 2.6.1 RC 7
- More fixes for CPack components functionality
- Fixes for Xcode generater #7277 #7044, do not compile foo.txt.
Rebuild application bundles when a library changes. Set the project

- Do not automatically add EXECUTABLE_OUTPUT_PATH to cache.
- New tree view in cmake-gui
- FindBoost.cmake, find boost as installed by the BoostPro/Boost Consulting
installers on Windows. And cleanup FindBoost module, fixing several
small bugs and providing better diagnostic information
when things go wrong.

need for NO_DEFAULT_PATH, and a repeated call to find_*

- FindQt4 now finds dependencies for some qt modules
- ctest cpu information fixes for cygwin and linux
