Description

I have cloned the evaluation version of P-Net v1.0.2.
But when I'm following instructions from tutorial https://docs.rt-labs.com/p-net/compiling_on_linux.html to build P-NET on linux, it fails with the error :

CMake Error: The source directory "/home/localuser/depots/profinet/linux/p-net" does not appear to contain CMakeLists.txt.

Why is there no CMakeLists.txt file in the repo ?

Research direction

Compare the Linux build instructions at the linked tutorial with the P-Net v1.0.2 checkout, starting at the repository root and the reported CMake invocation. Reproduce the missing-CMakeLists.txt error; done means identifying the version or checkout mismatch, then documenting the correct build path or required repository change.
