Failure to find the export-set of libassert.

[yand-jmg]

Thank you for this useful library!

In one of my other projects, I am trying to use it, following your cmake-based advice, in my own cmake-based project..

I have a library that uses libassert and links to it as per:

target_link_libraries(libfoo_archive
	PUBLIC
		libassert::assert
)

libfoo is later exported:

    install(
        TARGETS libfoo
        EXPORT libfooTargets
        RUNTIME DESTINATION ${CMAKE_INSTALL_BINDIR} COMPONENT runtime
        ARCHIVE DESTINATION ${CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR} COMPONENT development
        LIBRARY DESTINATION ${CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBEXECDIR}	COMPONENT runtime
    )

Which cause cmake to emit this error:

CMake Error in CMakeLists.txt:
  export called with target "libfoo" which requires target "libassert-lib"
  that is not in any export set.

Can you advise regarding how I might fix this problem, please?

Hi thanks for opening this. I had this issue recently in the upstream library (cpptrace) and now that it's fixed there I can fix it here too.

Now fixed on dev, I'll do a patch release with this and some other fixes some time soon

Thanks a lot - let me know and might you put a link into the pull request, so I can ensure my library is "done correctly" in cmake, in case I have made an error there!
