Revision 0a81110b842fd7b00cdacc55c270458ddaa2eb73 authored by Brad King on 14 September 2023, 18:08:31 UTC, committed by Brad King on 14 September 2023, 19:13:50 UTC
Since commit ffc06c1239 (Teach find_(library|file|path) to get prefixes from PATH, 2015-02-18, v3.3.0-rc1~430^2) we search in `<prefix>/include` and `<prefix>/lib` directories for prefixes with `bin` directories in the `PATH` environment variable. The motivation was to search the installation prefixes of MSYS and MinGW development environments automatically. This behavior can search undesired prefixes that happen to be in the `PATH` for unrelated reasons. It was reverted for non-Windows hosts within a year by commit b30b32a493 (Drop find_(library|file|path) prefixes from PATH on non-Windows, 2016-05-09, v3.6.0-rc1~82^2) but was kept on Windows hosts to support its motivating use case. However, similar problems have since been observed on Windows. For example, commit 955d6245c1 (MSVC: Revert "Teach find_library to consider the 'libfoo.a' naming convention", 2022-11-28, v3.25.1~6^2) was primarily due to undesired discovery of libraries in `PATH`-derived prefixes. Since commit 5e5132e1b1 (MinGW: Search for packages in standard MSYSTEM environment prefixes, 2023-09-11) we search MSYS and MinGW environments' prefixes explicitly, so `PATH`-derived prefixes are no longer needed for the original motivating use case. Fixes: #24216
