i installed the CMake in ubuntu, how to check if it installed ?

This has nothing to do with Ubuntu One. Also, please don't re-post the same question multiple times. Once is enough. If you want cmake in Ubuntu, simply run sudo apt-get install cmake and you will have it installed. — dobey, Dec 05 '12 at 02:35

Just type cmake --version in terminal, If cmake is not installed you will command not found error, If cmake is installed , you can see the cmake version

I'n my case I also needed to know the version, so this was the best answer. – Peter Gloor Aug 21 '19 at 09:46
