CMake upstream here. CMake 2.8.12 is *very* old, and it is likely that
we will eventually remove support for < 2.8.12 altogether, resulting
in errors (rather than just deprecation warnings) if you specify such
an old version in cmake_minimum_required(). I would suggest updating
the autopkgtests to request a newer CMake version.
