Building samples failed

[chsc]

Hello all, I have problems building the SDK sample applications. Specifically I was following the example at STM32 Minimum Development Board.

I get the following error after running cmake -DBOARD=stm32_min_dev ..:

CMake Deprecation Warning at /home/christoph/zephyr/cmake/app/boilerplate.cmake:38 (cmake_policy):
  The OLD behavior for policy CMP0000 will be removed from a future version
  of CMake.

  The cmake-policies(7) manual explains that the OLD behaviors of all
  policies are deprecated and that a policy should be set to OLD only under
  specific short-term circumstances.  Projects should be ported to the NEW
  behavior and not rely on setting a policy to OLD.

The sdk_version file seems to be missing, so I assume the build files are broken or outdated...

Please make sure that it's not https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47081317/zephyr-cmake-error

It's not.

This would happen if the SDK environment variable was pointing to the wrong directory.
It would also happen if the installed SDK version was so old it didn't have the sdk_version file.

Could you ls the SDK path environment variable?
Also, post the version of the SDK that is installed.

Rechecked my installation. Seems that the SDK environment varaiable was pointing to a wrong folder.

Is there any correlation with the upper error? @SebastianBoe
thank you :)
