Cannot cmake #21

Writing in English because I can't type Vietnamese :)

After using sudo apt-get install cmake fcitx-libs-dev python2.7-dev libx11-dev build-essential successfully, I try to cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DPYTHON_EXECUTABLE=$(which python2.7) .. and meet this error:

CMake Error: The source directory "/home/home" does not appear to contain CMakeLists.txt.

Specify --help for usage, or press the help button on the CMake GUI

Guessing that I have to search CMakeLists.txt somewhere:

sudo find -name "CMakeLists.txt"
./lib/firmware/carl9170fw/CMakeLists.txt
./lib/firmware/carl9170fw/config/CMakeLists.txt
./lib/firmware/carl9170fw/minifw/CMakeLists.txt
./lib/firmware/carl9170fw/carlfw/CMakeLists.txt
./lib/firmware/carl9170fw/tools/CMakeLists.txt
./lib/firmware/carl9170fw/tools/lib/CMakeLists.txt
./lib/firmware/carl9170fw/tools/carlu/CMakeLists.txt
./lib/firmware/carl9170fw/tools/src/CMakeLists.txt
./usr/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/FortranCInterface/CMakeLists.txt
./usr/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/FortranCInterface/Verify/CMakeLists.txt
./usr/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/IntelVSImplicitPath/CMakeLists.txt

Which one should I cd to? Note that I install Linux for my mom so I set the language in Vietnamese. Some folders' names are translated to Vietnamese. I use Mint, already apt-get update.
