I have installed a library onto my system and I would now like to import this library to build with cmake in my CMakeLists.txt file but I’m not able to import it. I get errors that the library can’t be found when I run cmake ..
The library was installed to /usr/local and it is in a few sub folders here. I have them all listed below.
This is the part of my CMakeLists.txt which fails.
find_package(MUJOCO REQUIRED)
link_libraries(MUJOCO::mujoco)
This is the error I get with this attempt to import the library in my CMakeLists.txt
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:65 (find_package):
By not providing "FindMUJOCO.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has
asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "MUJOCO", but
CMake did not find one.
Could not find a package configuration file provided by "MUJOCO" with any
of the following names:
MUJOCOConfig.cmake
mujoco-config.cmake
Add the installation prefix of "MUJOCO" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
"MUJOCO_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files. If "MUJOCO"
provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been
installed.
This is where the mujoco library was installed on my system, the library I want to include was installed.
I’m not sure it is write to hand code every one of these paths.

>Solution :
The only cmake configuration files installed by the lib are
-- Installing: /usr/local/lib/cmake/mujoco/mujocoTargets.cmake
-- Installing: /usr/local/lib/cmake/mujoco/mujocoTargets-release.cmake
-- Installing: /usr/local/lib/cmake/mujoco/mujocoConfig.cmake
-- Installing: /usr/local/lib/cmake/mujoco/mujocoConfigVersion.cmake
find_package(<Package> ...)
in config mode checks for the files
<package>-config.cmake
<Package>Config.cmake
where <package> is the <Package> with the first character converted to lower case.
, see the find_package() documentation
You’ve used find_package(MUJOCO REQUIRED) in your cmake project, which means, cmake is looking for a file named mujoco-config.cmake or MUJOCOConfig.cmake, but not for mujocoConfig.cmake.
You need to use
find_package(mujoco REQUIRED)
instead.
