## CMake prefix path overrides
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When using pkg-config as a dependency resolver we can pass
|
||
|
|
`-Dpkg_config_path=$somepath` to extend or overwrite where pkg-config will
|
||
|
|
search for dependencies. Now cmake can do the same, as long as the dependency
|
||
|
|
uses a ${Name}Config.cmake file (not a Find{$Name}.cmake file), by passing
|
||
|
|
`-Dcmake_prefix_path=list,of,paths`. It is important that point this at the
|
||
|
|
prefix that the dependency is installed into, not the cmake path.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you have installed something to `/tmp/dep`, which has a layout like:
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
/tmp/dep/lib/cmake
|
||
|
|
/tmp/dep/bin
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
then invoke meson as `meson builddir/ -Dcmake_prefix_path=/tmp/dep`
