All of these articles say the way to avoid having an absolute path stored in the linked output is to use -L <dir> -l <lib> ... which is definatly not what cmake is producing. Reflecting on this, maybe I can replace target_link_libraries with manually specified link_flags; maybe some sort of similarly named macro
