Hey Mikael,
Speaking of CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH, I run Gentoo "Prefix" on my mac (in OSX) for
development. It's basically
Gentoo's package mgmt and build system, relegated to a directory tree under
/opt. Meaning, everything
is installed/linked with a prefix of /opt/gentoo/[lib64,usr,include,...]. I had
no luck using CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
for findingthings like ilmbase, openexr, etc when setting
CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="/opt/gentoo". I had to use
their respective _HOME variables. I figured my setup was a bit strange, so
Inever spent much time trying
to figure it out. Is this your experience too?
I guess it's time to buy that cmake book.

Subject: Re: [Oiio-dev] Whither "external"?
Hi all - I think it would be enough if OIIO honors the CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
variable when trying to find all dependencies, including IlmBase and OpenEXR.
By doing that developers with the original external package or their own could
easly use it to find all dependencies (no system installs needed).
@Stephan and Nicholas: Did you have a look at BundleUtilities
(http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/BundleUtilitiesExample)? Will do some tests with it
tonight.
Mikael
