Summary: FindPythonLibs.cmake fails as it searches in the
wrong place
Description:
When cmake searches for Python libs in Windows it searches in (from
FindPythonLibs.cmake):
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Python\\PythonCore\\${_CURRENT_VERSION}\\InstallPath]/libs
However, the information might not always reside there. The information could
also reside in:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\SOFTWARE\\Python\\PythonCore\\${_CURRENT_VERSION}\\InstallPath]/libs
As it is on my machine. The difference is I suspect is that it is dependent on
if a user installs Python for just himself or if Python is installed for all
users on the current machine.
Steps to Reproduce:
Install Python for a single user, not for all users.
Additional Information:
I uploaded a patch where one can see what is needed to be added in
FindPythonLibs.cmake.
Best Regards
/Christian
