my working platform is Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.
I'm trying to install QCViewer from github. It seems a lot of packages are needed from my installation of QCViewer from source. So, I worked on my way through the github repository, installed all the build dependencies at/usr, , and enter the folder QCViewer/build/release and run ./build. This worked fine untill the package "poppler" where cmake gives the following error:
root#ubuntu:/home/link/QCViewer-master/build/release# ./build
CMake Error at QCViewer/CMakeLists.txt:63 (FIND_PACKAGE):
By not providing "FindPoppler.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has
asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "Poppler", but
CMake did not find one.
Could not find a package configuration file provided by "Poppler" with any
of the following names:
PopplerConfig.cmake
poppler-config.cmake
Add the installation prefix of "Poppler" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
"Poppler_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files. If
"Poppler" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has
been installed.
-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
See also "/home/link/QCViewer-master/build/release/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log".
make: *** No rule to make target 'install'. Stop.
and also noted that：
link#ubuntu:~$ pkg-config --libs --cflags poppler
-I/usr/include/poppler -lpoppler
Meanwhile, I find that this project's CMakeLists.txtgiven as follows:
cmake_minimum_required (VERSION 2.6)
project(QCViewer)
find_package(PkgConfig)
pkg_check_modules(GTKMM gtkmm-2.4 freetype2 poppler-glib)
add_subdirectory(QCViewer)
so how can I fix it?

Preface: I am using Clion with Cygwin. I have installed vcpkg following their instructions. Then I followed restinio instructions to install restinio using vcpkg. Since restinio required fmt and http-parser I installed both of those too.
I have installed both the x86-windows version and x64-windows version of all 3 packages.
I linked vcpkg cmake file as per their instructions in Clion and have regenerated the CMakeCache
Currently I am trying to build specifically the x64-windows version (I was having other errors with the x86 version and I got further with the x64 version).
I have looked at this, and my initial error is different along with there is stuff inside of the directory that is in the relative path.

# RESTinio itself
find_package(restinio CONFIG REQUIRED)
# Make your project dependent on restinio,
# and let cmake deal with all the headers paths and linked libs.

the path: "C:/dev/vcpkg/vcpkg-master/installed/x64-windows/include" exists and has asio, fmt, and restinio dirs along with asio.hpp and http_parser.h.

First I downloaded the GLFW 32 bit binaries for Windows from their website. Below are the contents of this download:
I then copied the "include" and "lib-vc2019" files into a folder called "Dependencies" under my Clion project folder "OpenGL":
Following the instructions from "With CMake and installed GLFW binaries" from https://www.glfw.org/docs/3.3/build_guide.html#build_link_cmake_package
In my CMakeLists.txt file I have the following:

add_executable(OpenGL Main.cpp)

find_package(glfw3 3.3 REQUIRED)
target_link_libraries(OpenGL glfw)
When I try to build, I get the following errors:

Have spent a lot of time on this and very confused. If someone could provide a step by step guidance to make this work, would greatly appreciate it.
You misunderstood the "installed" part: those generate a glfw3Config.cmake file that tells CMake where the library and headers live. find_package will find and load that file.
Replace the last two lines of your CMake file with the following. This sets up a CMake target with the predefined library and header files:
add_library(glfw STATIC IMPORTED)
set_target_properties(glfw PROPERTIES
IMPORTED_LOCATION "${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/Dependencies/lib-vc2019/glfw3.lib"
INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES "${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/include")
target_link_libraries(OpenGL glfw)

I want to compile SealPIR library using emscripten to generate a wasm file.
When using this command:
emcmake cmake .
I get this error:

When using a toolchain file for cross compiling, CMake will by default disable system libraries. It won't search into any directory to avoid finding files that is not compatible with the target system.
You think you didn't used a toolchain file? Think again! emcmake hides that from you. Look carefully at the error output.
Here you compiled the SEAL library, but you installed it in the default path, which is /usr/local.
We can tell CMake to explicitly search there, but I wouldn't recommend, but you can try if it works:
emcmake cmake . -CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/usr/local
The proper solution would be to create a directory with all the emscripten libraries in it:
# In the SEAL build directory
emcmake cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/anblic/webassembly/install
Then after installing the libraries in that directory, you can set the prefix path in the same directory as the install path:
# Assuming you're in a build/ subdirectory
emcmake cmake .. -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/home/anblic/webassembly/install
I am building a project using cmake 3.5.1 and ninja on Ubuntu 16.04 server.
When I try to build I get an error about finding a zlib dependency..
ninja: error: '/usr/lib/libz.so' needed by 'MyProject', missing and no known rule to make it.
I have checked and confirmed I have zlib1g-dev package installed.
I assume the following line in cmake is what is looking for the libz.so
target_link_libraries(MyProject ${ZLIB_LIBRARIES})
The following line is present in the CMakeLists.txt
find_package(ZLIB REQUIRED)
I am porting a Windows project to CentOS Linux that uses cpprestsdk. I use vcpkg on Windows and I thought I would use vcpkg (and cmake) to bring in and build the packages and 'expose' the libs and header files to my project. The sequence fails in trying to get package header file 'known' to my source. This is what I did.
$ vcpkg install boost cpprestsdk
$ vcpkg integrate install
Applied user-wide integration for this vcpkg root.
CMake projects should use: "-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=/vcpkg/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake"
$ cd <source>
$ vi CMakeLists.txt
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.9)
project(Domain)
set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -std=gnu++11 -I../ ")
file(GLOB SOURCES "*.cpp")
#Generate the shared library from the sources
add_library(Domain SHARED ${SOURCES})
install(TARGETS Domain DESTINATION ../lib)
$ cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=/vcpkg/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" .
$ make

By adding the vcpkg toolchain file parameter to cmake, I thought it was supposed to take care of exposing all of the package paths (lib/header) and write them to the output Makefile?
I tried adding
find_package(cpprestsdk REQUIRED)
Then I got bunch of new errors:
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:7 (find_package):
Could not find a package configuration file provided by "cpprestsdk" with
any of the following names:
cpprestsdkConfig.cmake
cpprestsdk-config.cmake
cpprestConfig.cmake
cpprest-config.cmake
cpprestsdk-config.cmake does exist under the vcpkg root directory and I can definitely see the offending header file for the package under the vcpkg root directory, but why does the cmake-generated Makefile not have everything it needs to build? Does each and every package under vcpkg have to be manually included in some way in the CMakeLists.txt file?
I found the problem. Cpprestsdk does not register/expose any cmake find_package() config module. If it did that, this wouldn't be an issue - the generated toolchain file would set everything cmake needs in order to generate the paths to include in the MakeFile.
I added the following line to the CMakeList.txt file and cmake was then able to find the config file:
set(cpprestsdk_DIR "/vcpkg/installed/x64-linux/share/cpprestsdk")
Which is really, really bad, IMHO, to have to hard code a path to find cpprestsdk. I still have the header file path problem, so there's actually much more going wrong/missing. I'll update this post once I get word from the vcpkg/cmake teams.

set(CPPREST_EXPORT_DIR cpprestsdk CACHE STRING "Directory to install CMake config files.")
One thing puzzle me (not a vcpkg expert yet)
https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg/blob/master/ports/cpprestsdk/portfile.cmake#L45
vcpkg_fixup_cmake_targets(CONFIG_PATH lib/share/cpprestsdk)
while it should be lib/cpprestsdk IMHO (ed: not checked SHA1 version)
#cardinalPilot did you try to locate the config file on your system ?
can you also try to print the CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH etc to see if vcpkg do correctly its stuff...
