Your CMake version should be newer than your compiler. It should be newer than the libraries you are using (especially Boost). New versions work better for everyone.

If you have a built in copy of CMake, it isn't special or customized for your system. You can easily install a new one instead, either on the system level or the user level. Feel free to instruct your users here if they complain about a CMake requirement being set too high. Especially if they want < 3.1 support. Maybe even if they want CMake < 3.18 support...

And, if you want a system install, install to `/usr/local`; this is an excellent choice in a Docker container, for example on GitLab CI. Do not try it on a non-containerized system.

The default on 8 is not too bad, but you should not use the default on 7. Use the EPEL package instead.

You should only use the default CMake on 18.04+; it's an LTS release with a pretty decent minimum version!

Personally, on Linux, I put versions of CMake in folders, like `/opt/cmake312` or `~/opt/cmake312`, and then add them to [LMod]. See [`envmodule_setup`][envmodule_setup] for help setting up an LMod system on macOS or Linux. It takes a bit to learn, but is a great way to manage package and compiler versions.
