Hello,
I would like to write some FindFoo.cmake files to find packages installed on
different systems including Mac.
I have noticed that homebrew install packages in a repertory whose name depends
on the version of the package.
For example, I have installed a scientific library called scotch, and it is now
installed here:
/usr/local/Cellar/scotch/6.0.4_4
What is the best way to handle such a path in FindScotch.cmake?
I have think about these ones:
- looking for /usr/local/Cellar/scotch/${SCOTCH_VERSION} where SCOTCH_VERSION
has to be provided by users;
- force users to install a specific version of Scotch which is hardcoded in
SCOTCH_VERSION variable.
I think the latter option is better since there is no reason that any version
of scotch will be compatible with my own code.
Is there a better way?
Best regards,
Cédric
