```

Check the version:

## From a release tarball

First, download the binary package:

```console
$ curl -LO https://cmake.org/files/v3.27/cmake-3.27.7-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
```

Uncompress it:

```console
$ sudo tar -C /usr/local --strip-components=1 -xzvf cmake-3.27.7-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
```

It is OK now. Check the version:

```console
$ cmake --version
cmake version 3.27.7

CMake suite maintained and supported by Kitware (kitware.com/cmake).
