No CMakeLists.txt in sub-folders

[ratin3]

Hi All, I am pretty new to CEF , trying to build the binary distribution, I downloaded and extractd the binary distribution cef_binary_3.2680.1395.g84fe790_linux64.7z on a ubuntu 14.04, 64 bit machine, made a build directory and cd'ed into it and ran "cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ..", but no luck, cmake complains several makefiles are missing:

build# cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ..

Should the CMakeList.txt files be in respected folders added by the main one?

Yes, the CMakeList.txt files should exist in sub-folders. Sounds like you figured out the problem with your 7z extraction flags.
