I agree that it's not CMake's fault, but it does fit the grandparent's statement that "everyone does things slightly differently".

It's also very fixable - a central site for collecting find_package modules and enforcing certain standards should be doable, and would improve CMake's UX significantly.



Yeah agreed, a site of find package modules would go a long way towards helping, but only if they’re vetted in some way, otherwise nothing r ally changes.
