Thanks for trying it. I get the same linking error after applying the typo fix and the change to add_executable on master. After cd Import/A in the build dir, and make VERBOSE=1, I get this: /usr/lib/icecc/bin/c++ -g CMakeFiles/deps_iface.dir/deps_iface.cpp.o - o deps_iface -rdynamic /home/stephen/dev/src/cmake/Tests/ExportImport/build/Root/lib/libtestLibDepends.a /home/stephen/dev/src/cmake/Tests/ExportImport/build/Root/lib/libtestLibRequired.a so it seems that the libraries are being passed to the linker, but the symbols are not being resolved? I haven't yet seen why that is. Any ideas?
