Re: Installing zstd CMake files

Thank you for the suggestion.
However, the variant would have to be default, which would still require cmake, 
which could still lead to circular dependency with clang.

Would it make sense to make it into a variant, instead of a separate
subport?

Installing zstd CMake files

[mcalhoun]

The package opencolorio uses CMake to find minizip-ng.
The minizip-ng’s CMake files assume that the CMake files of zstd exist.
However, the CMake files of zstd are installed if and only if zstd is built 
with CMake (*not* make).
According to the README.md of zstd, "`make` is the officially maintained build 
system of this project.”
Further, zstd is a dependency of clang.

My proposed solution is to create a subport of zstd that just installed the 
CMake files
(https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/18605/).

This is *far* from an ideal solution, and I was hoping someone else would have 
a better idea.

Thanks,
Marcus
