Compiling PyTracker software using old version of CMake

Hi everyone,

I have been trying to download and construct the required software to run PyTracker/Python using openCV but ran into problems at step 7.4 of the tutorial (http://opencv-python-tutroals.readthedocs.io/en/latest/py_tutorials/py_setup/py_setup_in_windows/py_setup_in_windows.html). The guide instructs to download a (presumably old) version of CMake-gui (cmake-2.8.11.2) and when I tried to compile the software, an error message came up saying that I need a newer version of CMake. I downloaded a newer version from their website but couldn't open it, and my supervisor suggested that with a new version of CMake, I would also require new versions of the other software components.

Has anyone else experienced/overcome this issue?

Thanks in advance!

Caitlin
