For reference, the `cmake --find-package` mode documentation you mentioned is here: * https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.15/manual/cmake.1.html#run-the-find-package-tool "This mode is not well-supported due to some technical limitations. It is kept for compatibility but should not be used in new projects." There is an issue collecting some of the problems with it: * https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/issues/14676 There is another issue discussing a possible alternative: * https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/issues/17236 A key difference between the two approaches is that the latter actually enables languages and inspects the toolchain to support things like COMPILE_FEATURES and such. However, the way all that information is encoded in the imported targets created by `install(EXPORT)` is meant to be consumed and transformed by CMake's generators. It may not be easy to extract it for external use. I've just posted some additional links in the latter issue above: * https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/issues/17236#note_634094 -Brad -- Powered by www.kitware.com Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Kitware offers various services to support the CMake community.

[cmake-developers] Revitalize --find-package mode?
Hi! I’m currently struggling with trying to build GNOME projects using meson, but depending on CMake-built libraries, either in the wild or inside a package manager. I have managed to uncover that the way Meson is trying to invoke CMake https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg/issues/6683#issuecomment-533034646 to obtain dependency information is no longer maintained in CMake, or at least discouraged for new projects. My queries on the Meson forums did not resonate well (in fact they didn’t resonate at all): https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mesonbuild/OEB0UIlLl0A Are there any opinions in how to make ends meet? I’m trying to build GIMP on Ubuntu LTS releases, which often have outdated packages that cannot be used to build GNOME master branches as well as build them natively on Windows using Vcpkg ports. The current method Meson tries to use CMake is totally Vcpkg-unfriendly. As far as I saw --find-package mode and toolchain failes are not friends, even configuring a one-line main.cpp fails due to basic variables not being set in --find-package mode. What specific routes do you see viable?
