Hi,
Perhaps it will be helpful information for someone.
On popular Linux distributions CMake 2.6 may not be necessarily the same
CMake 2.6 as documented [1] on the website.
CMake from Ubuntu 9.10 reports "cmake version 2.6-patch 4"
CMake from Debian 5.0.3 reports "cmake version 2.6-patch 0"
It's a micro-difference but may be significant, because on Debian,
for instance, VERSION_LESS or VERSION_GREATER are not available.
I understand it's probably a Debian problem, but users may be confused
while trying to refer to CMake 2.6 documentation.
