Summary: pkg_get_variable from FindPkgConfig should honour
search path from CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
Description:
The pkg_get_variable function from FindPkgConfig.cmake that is added in CMake
3.4.0 is really useful! However, it needs to honour the same search path as
pkg_check_modules, otherwise it doesn't work when packages are not installed in
standard prefixes
Steps to Reproduce:
Use attached test case
Expected output:
Magic word is: xyzzy
Actual output:
Package cmake-pkgconfig-test was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `cmake-pkgconfig-test.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'cmake-pkgconfig-test' found
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:15 (message):
Did not pick up magic_word variable from cmake-pkgconfig-test.pc
