CMake Error: CMake was unable to find a build program corresponding to "Ninja".

系统环境：

$ lsb_release -a
LSB Version:    :base-4.0-amd64:base-4.0-noarch:core-4.0-amd64:core-4.0-noarch:graphics-4.0-amd64:graphics-4.0-noarch:printing-4.0-amd64:printing-4.0-noarch

$ getconf LONG_BIT

$ which cmake
/usr/bin/cmake
$ cmake --version
cmake version 2.8.12.2
$ which ninja
/usr/bin/ninja
$ ninja --version
1.7.

问题：使用cmake工具且选用Ninja作为编译工具（build program）时，报错，找不到Ninja的程序，具体信息如下：

 CMake Error: CMake was unable to find a build program corresponding to "Ninja".  CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM is not set.  You probably need to select a different build tool.
 CMake Error: Error required internal CMake variable not set, cmake may be not be built correctly.
 Missing variable is:
 CMAKE_C_COMPILER
 CMake Error: Could not find cmake module file: /home/jgeng/avs2-build/CMakeFiles/2.8.12.2/CMakeCCompiler.cmake
 CMake Error: Error required internal CMake variable not set, cmake may be not be built correctly.
 Missing variable is:

解决方法：

# ln -s /usr/bin/ninja /usr/bin/ninja-build

# strace cmake -GNinja .. | grep -i ninja
access("ninja-build", R_OK)             = - ENOENT (No such file or directory)
access("/usr/local/sbin/ninja-build", R_OK) = - ENOENT (No such file or directory)
access("/usr/local/bin/ninja-build", R_OK) = - ENOENT (No such file or directory)
access("/sbin/ninja-build", R_OK)       = - ENOENT (No such file or directory)
access("/bin/ninja-build", R_OK)        = - ENOENT (No such file or directory)
access("/usr/sbin/ninja-build", R_OK)   = - ENOENT (No such file or directory)
access("/usr/bin/ninja-build", R_OK)    = - ENOENT (No such file or directory)

cmake 在设置build program的时候找的是ninja-build程序，而不是ninja程序。
