Below I provided the instruction on how to build Awl on Ubuntu 18 and 20.
On Ubuntu 18 you do an extra step to install CMake version >= 3.12:
wget -O - https://apt.kitware.com/keys/kitware-archive-latest.asc 2>/dev/null | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-add-repository 'deb https://apt.kitware.com/ubuntu/ bionic main'
sudo apt update
Then do the following steps on both Ubuntu 18 and 20:
sudo apt install cmake
cmake --version
