Is there a generally accepted method to pass extra paths to find_package in module mode? To get around this, I have been doing something like this:set(FOO_EXTRA_PATHS path1 path2) Find_package(FOO) In FindFOO.cmake: ... set(FOO_LIB_POSSIBLE_PATHS ${FOO_EXTRA_PATHS} /path3/) ... (Use the possible paths in find_library/find_file/etc) Jameson
For additional search paths in which to find modules themselves there is CMAKE_MODULE_PATH but given your example that is I assume not what you are looking for.
There is CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH (environment or cmake cache variable) which is however intended to be used by users of a project so they can tell cmake about their local non standard prefixes rather than by project authors.
Would that fit your use case?
