It fails at the make step with the following error:

make: *** [amalgamation/xgboost-all0.o] Error 1
Using: gcc (GCC) 7.2.1 20170915 (Red Hat 7.2.1-2)

When I install it using python3, I get the following error
error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'cmake'

Even I am getting the same error while installing on a Linux Server. Were you able to find any workaround for this ?
I am trying to install on Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS Server, Python 3.6.9

Regards.

To resolve cmake error..run this "sudo pip3 install cmake" (version should >14).
