Fabrice, All,

I was not too keen on applying this bump, because that is going to
increas the build quite quite a bit on older distros...

However, there is not much we can do against upstream's will.
Furthermore, we can only count on more packages requiring a newer cmake
version as tiem passes, so bumping the requirement is inevitable.
I've added a note to that effect in the commit log, and applied to
master, thanks.

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
