    Description

      Qt Creator on MacOS is not able to compile a CMake project linking to an external project.

      CMake configuration succeeds, but then at compile time there are errors saying "Cmake was unable to find ..."

      You can try the annexed project helloWorld.zip. If I compile it in Qt Creator under Ubuntu it works fine.

      The only way to compile on Mac is via Terminal using the following commands:

      mkdir build_helloworld && cd build_helloworld
cmake .. -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=<path to Qt>
cmake --build .
