I have seen a strange behaviour on my (openSUSE) Linux host running on AMD64. Sometimes during my Find* module tests libraries in /usr/lib64 were not found. It took me a while until I noticed what was going on there: FIND_LIBRARY_USE_LIB64_PATHS is not set when I used project(... NONE). While this sounds logical maybe the find_library() documentation should be updated to say that some language needs to be enabled for it to properly work.
While searching the reason of this behaviour I of course did a "git grep lib64" and found a bunch of Find* modules that manually specify lib64 as suffix. Also most of them also specified "lib" as a path suffix, which is according to my understanding totally unneeded as find_library() will automatically add this suffix. Am I correct? Then I would go in the next days and throw them both out. Is same is true for find_path() and include suffix? Greetings, Eike
