It seems the tar ball from https://geant4.web.cern.ch/support/download: geant4.10.07.p02.tar.gz is missing some files when I try to build Geant4 using this tarball it fails at the cmake stage: cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../geant4-v11.0.0-tarinstall -DGEANT4_BUILD_VERBOSE_CODE=OFF -DGEANT4_INSTALL_DATA=ON -DGEANT4_USE_SYSTEM_CLHEP=ON -DGEANT4_USE_GDML=ON -DGEANT4_USE_QT=ON -DGEANT4_BUILD_MULTITHREADED=ON -DGEANT4_USE_OPENGL_X11=ON ../geant4-v11.0.0 -- Checking C++ feature CXXSTDLIB_FILESYSTEM_NATIVE - Success -- Configuring download of missing dataset G4NDL (4.6) -- Configuring download of missing dataset G4EMLOW (8.0) -- Configuring download of missing dataset PhotonEvaporation (5.7) -- Configuring download of missing dataset RadioactiveDecay (5.6) -- Configuring download of missing dataset G4PARTICLEXS (4.0) -- Configuring download of missing dataset G4PII (1.3) -- Configuring download of missing dataset RealSurface (2.2) -- Configuring download of missing dataset G4SAIDDATA (2.0) -- Configuring download of missing dataset G4ABLA (3.1) -- Configuring download of missing dataset G4INCL (1.0) -- Configuring download of missing dataset G4ENSDFSTATE (2.3) CMake Error at cmake/Modules/G4CPack.cmake:14 (include): include could not find requested file: G4GitUtilities Call Stack (most recent call first): cmake/Modules/G4CMakeMain.cmake:139 (include) CMakeLists.txt:50 (include) CMake Error at cmake/Modules/G4CPack.cmake:106 (geant4_git_find_dirty): Unknown CMake command "geant4_git_find_dirty".

See also "/data2/wenzel/geant4-v11.0.0-tarbuild/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log". See also "/data2/wenzel/geant4-v11.0.0-tarbuild/CMakeFiles/CMakeError.log". in fact the file G4GitUtilities.cmake is missing. If I use the git repo I find: geant4-dev/cmake/Modules/G4GitUtilities.cmake and the cmake and build step works ok.
