Look up the find_library command in the documentation. Especially the part
that starts "The reason the paths listed in the call to the command are
searched last...."
You can force specific paths for libraries using certain options of the
find_library command. However, if users of your build system have a
non-standard install location for some library or group of libraries, I
think it is normally best to let that user set CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH for
themselves rather than trying to force anything in the build system itself.
