Use -Wno-dev to suppress it. This can mean (with deadly precision) nothing other than ${Target} having ended up as an empty expression, thus the sqlite3 argument (/usr/lib/libsqlite3.dylib) ends up being the *first* argument of the call which is supposed to be the candidate target instead. IOW, FUBAR. Perhaps ${Target} variable has a case sensitivity issue? Scope issue? (perhaps some outer scope defined it yet now we're in a foreign unrelated scope? Different directory, different function, ...). Anyway, always use message(FATAL_ERROR "exact_same_cmake_line_content_as_executed") (or, IOW, message(FATAL_ERROR "target_link_libraries(${Target} ${SQLITE3_LIBRARIES})") ) whenever needing to analyze why things fail.
