If you have this file then you still need to build the distribution!

Move to a new, clean directory and run
$ ccmake <path_back_to_this_directory>

Edit the options (see below) as you see fit. Most commonly you will
just leave them alone. Then run make:

$ make package

If you satisfy the dependencies you should end up with a tarball that
you can distribute to students. It will be localized for the
environment that it is built on so do build on the machine that the
students will be using.
