Description
cmake has a lot of library detection routines which do not correctly look for where the libraries will be installed on a Haiku system.
This makes it impossible to provide a clean .bep for some applications which have cmake build systems.
A few of these are patched but we should probably check every single one of the FindXXX modules.

Some of this work has been done, but there's probably more left to do. The results so far can be seen in the cmake-2.8-git patch.

Freetype needs to be adjusted still, I'll take a look if I get a chance later. CorsixTH (Theme Hospital clone that I've got a .bep for) looks for Freetype via cmake.

Actually, that was easier to patch than I thought, committed in r2259

- Resolution set to fixed
- Status changed from new to closed
Most frequent issues (SDL, freetype) now fixed. Please open separate tickets for each Find* module you have problems with.
If I remember correctly, most of them have variables that can be set to hint at the proper location. These can be set from within the build system of the app/library. I'm hesitant to fix all of them directly in cmake if our filesystem layout is going to change due to package management. If someone wants to submit a patch for that it's fine though.
