Hello,
Let be a project A developed and distributed by organization AA.
Let be another project B depending on A, developed by organization BB. B
calls find_package(A) in its CMakeLists.txt as to get the dependencies
libraries and includes.
How should FindA.cmake be distributed ?
Option 1: package A (eg. A.rpm) installs it in /usr/share/cmake/ (on Linux)
so that it is found by B or any other project that needs it.
Option 2: package A installs it in a more specific location such as
/opt/A/cmake. However, how would B find it ?
Option 3: package A doesn't install it anywhere and we let the developers of
B download it manually.
I would go for option 1 but I am not really sure what is the standard way.
Thank you in advance
Barth
