Could you post the lines which define those targets psi.utility_install
and install_all_eggs, or is this quite tricky, too? Do these lines stem
from the same CMakeLists.txt? IIRC, the "no rule to make... needed by"
error occurs when there's something wrong with the DEPENDS clause of
ADD_CUSTOM_COMMAND/TARGET().
