I'm late to the party here but trying to test now.
One thing that might be useful off the bat though is to add a note in
the manual telling users to make sure their CMAKE version is up to
date. There's a specific recommendation on the quick install webpage
(
https://ambermd.org/pmwiki/index.php/Main/CMake-Quick-Start) but
nothing in the manual. We wouldn't have to put a specific version in
the manual, but a note like "Please make sure you have at least the
minimum version of cmake recommended here <insert URL>" etc.
I'll work on tests in the meantime.
