Collection of CMake find script to search for components of installed packages.

Having worked with CMake for a number of years, I have been enjoying the growing functionality of the ecosystem surrounding the cross-platform Makefile generator. However, mainly coming from an astronomy background, more but once I ran into the issue of missing search scripts for domain-specific packages (such as e.g. CFITSIO or WCSLIB), thereby starting to write them myself. As a result of this over time I have been accumulating a number of search modules, which not only I started moving around between different software projects, but which also might be useful to a wider audience.

You can test the provided modules via the provided CMakeLists.txt script, which will set up a simple project including the modules:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..

By default all find modules will be included and tested; if however you want to restrict testing to an individual module you can use the command line option MODULE_SELECTION to select a specific module, e.g.

cmake -DMODULE_SELECTION=FindRuby.cmake ..
