Hello, the problem with the "infinite" loop seems to be CMAKE related. Sorry to bother. Maybe the minimum required version of CMake should be changed from 2.6 to something higher. <a href="http://www.mail-archive.com/cmake@cmake.org/msg25107.html">Here</a> people discuss the same problem, where somebody suggest the problem of infinite looping is fixed in <a href="http://www.cmake.org/files/v2.6/CMakeChangeLog-2.6.2">version 2.6.2</a><br>

However, the script gets stuck in some kind of "infinite" loop, producing this text over and over again. What should I do now?<br>
