            Bug ID: 139055
           Summary: [EFL] Add warning if CMake version is too old for
                    building with ninja.
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools / Tests

CMake 2.8.9 does not know CMAKE_NINJA_FORCE_RESPONSE_FILE, so it won't allow You to build WebKit using ninja.

On Ubuntu 12.04 (which many people still use as it was previous LTS) doing 'apt-get install cmake' You do get 2.8.9.
Apparently same situation occurs in 12.10 ( https://lists.webkit.org/pipermail/webkit-gtk/2014-March/001809.html )

I thought we might add small warning (and for 12.04 proposed solution), if such old version will be detected to inform developer at time, to save him searching.

Opinions?
