Talk:CMake:How To Find Libraries

Nice tutorial on "How to write Find modules", and I haven't had the chance to use it but LibFindMacros.cmake seems to be a nice utility.

But, on a rather sentimental issue, I was shocked to see the following comment once I downloaded the file:

# ...

# Damn CMake developers made the UsePkgConfig system deprecated in the same release (2.6)
# where they added pkg_check_modules ...
# 

One can understand you anger, and mail groups are a good place to discuss these (I am sure you already have). But can we please remove such remarks from the distributed code?

thanks for the module.

LibFindMacros.cmake is awesome, but it's missing a license header, so it's unclear if it's compatible with BSD, GPL, etc.

Can you please add this, especially if you want it included within CMake proper.

Thanks for the module. --Vlovich 15:37, 24 May 2010 (UTC)
