s/lib/${CMAKE_STATIC_LIBRARY_PREFIX}/
s/.a/${CMAKE_STATIC_LIBRARY_SUFFIX}/

also available ${CMAKE_EXECUTABLE_SUFFIX}  would be blank in your case, but
not always.

${CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_PREFX}
${CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_SUFFX}

PREFIX will be blank for windows platforms and SUFFIX appropriate .lib or
.dll (.a, .so )
