my recollection is that an unspecified build type results in a build that has
no optimizations and no debug symbols generated. I’m not sure what the
motivation for those default flags is. If you want to default to DEBUG,
something like this should work:
if (NOT CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE)
set(CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE Debug)
endif()
