1. build your own project, too, in separate build trees for debug and release 2. if all your dependencies' are prepared to provide debug and release libs simultanously (like Poco) you can build them in separate trees (however not neccessary) but set CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX and CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH to the same location for each configuration 3. you can examine CMakeCache.txt and find which variable is cached during find_package and remove it manually (unset(... CACHE)) but this is a hack
