Here's my basic issue:
£ apt show cmake | grep -i version
Version: 3.5.1-1ubuntu3
£ apt show debhelper | grep -i breaks
Breaks: cmake (<< 3.9~), dh-systemd (<< 1.38), meson (<< 0.40.0~)
£ cmake --version
cmake version 3.11.20180516-gacb971
£
cmake was built and installed from source. I can't uninstall the apt version because many packages depend on it. The debhelper package is from a neovim ppa (16.04), and is honestly probably broken for 16.04 (breaking cmake<3.9 on a 16.04 system doesn't make sense), but...it's actually not an issue on my system. But of course apt refuses to install it.
Is there a way to tell apt what my cmake version actually is? Of course, cmake 3.11 is not an apt package and could be missing things, so I doubt it. If not, what might be a good solution to this problem?
