I am confused on what you are trying to fix. I mean on windows CMake
rarely finds anything (since there is no standard path for libraries
or development) unless it was one of the recent applications you built
with CMake. However when it does not find a library, package ... just
setting a variable to appropriate directory in CMakeGUI fixes the
problem.
