Its not so much about what we provide vs. what we don't provide ourselves,
but more about wether the project for that library uses cmake to build its
code or not. In theory its perfectly possible to generate those
XXConfig.cmake files without using cmake as buildsystem, but its a lot
easier when cmake does this for you..
