CMake Warning (dev) in CMakeLists.txt: No cmake_minimum_required command is present. A line of code such as

should be added at the top of the file. The version specified may be lower if you wish to support older CMake versions for this project. For more information run "cmake --help-policy CMP0000". This warning is for project developers. Use -Wno-dev to suppress it.
