Error in cmake bam-readcount compiling

Question

[matthieudelcourt]

Hello,

I have installed cmake on my MAC and was trying to compile bam-readcount but ran into an error:

What I did, as sugested in the bam-readcount website, is: - first create a directory - entered it - tried to compile it using cmake: cmake ../bam-readcount/

That's when I ran into this error:

I'm not sure what to do or if it's a cmake issue. Thank you very much!
