Hi folks,

anyone familiar with CMake?

Is it normal that I get a "Permission Denied" response when trying to
download anything from cmake.org?

I've just done a quick search on the cmake.org site. It might have to do
with the following sentence on the download page:
'This software may not be exported in violation of any U.S. export laws
or regulations.'

Nope.

Whatever it is, they "are aware of the situation and are trying to
resolve this as soon as possible."

Or at least that's what they say.

Given that "https://cmake.org/files/v3.4" currently seems to be
blacklisted in Firefox for distributing "undesired" software, they might
actually know perfectly well how to solve the "Permission Denied" issue,
and the true "situation" is something entirely different.

Self-imposed quarantine, maybe?

No problem there. But they don't provide Windows installers of CMake on
GitHub.
