#If another version if cmake is installed, uninstall it. A compiler such as g++ must be installed.
sudo apt remove cmake

#Install prerequisite
sudo apt install libssl-dev

# Download the latest archive from https://cmake.org/download/
# Extract, build and install.

tar -zxvf cmake-x.yy.z.tar.gz
cd cmake-x.yy.z
./bootstrap
make -j $(nproc)
