Hi again, 
I installed cmake version 3.17.1.
nest-simulator can be imported properly. However I got the following error from make installcheck.

===========================================================================
FAIL: test_nn_pre_centered_synapse (nest.tests.test_stdp_nn_synapses.STDPNNSynapsesTest)
  AssertionError: 0.32057074514327416 != 0.8197400647350731 within 7 places : stdp_nn_pre-centered_synapse test: Resulting synaptic weight 8.197401e-01 differs from expected 3.205707e-01
  FAILED (SKIP=9, failures=1)

  PyNEST tests: 569
     Passed: 559
     Skipped: 9

Phase 8: Running C++ tests (experimental)
-----------------------------------------
  Not running C++ tests because NEST was compiled without Boost.
