The library builds using CMake and rather than using more code to find
itself, it should instead create a package configuration file which
contains the exact information CMake needs to use its install tree. See
the docs:

    https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/manual/cmake-packages.7.html#creating-packages

Please consider contributing such support to the upstream project.

Thanks,
