CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH isn't meant to be used like that, you should use
CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH I expect.
ROOT_PATH represents the root of a new file-system/OS basically and is
meant for cross-compilation. While what you want is extra directories
to start searching from which is what CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH is designed
for.
