CMake error when "-- Performing Test _LOGICAL_DEFAULT_KIND" during setup; missing ./cmake/Trial_sources directory under ./extern/fArgParse/extern/gFTL-shared/extern/gFTL

Hi, I recently cloned the git repository for pFUnit and followed the instructions to install it. I end up with the following error during cmake:

... ..... -- Performing Test _LOGICAL_DEFAULT_KIND CMake Error at /home/aike/Work/MFIX/ML-mfix/mfix-20.3.4_ml/ml_tools/thirdpartylibs/pFUnit.cloned/buildGNU/CMakeFiles/CMakeTmp/CMakeLists.txt:18 (add_executable): Cannot find source file:

-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

I checked the directory being referred and apparently there is no Trial_sources directory created leaving apart the file it is looking for (LOGICAL_DEFAULT_KIND.F90): $ ls /home/aike/Work/MFIX/ML-mfix/mfix-20.3.4_ml/ml_tools/thirdpartylibs/pFUnit.cloned/extern/fArgParse/extern/gFTL-shared/extern/gFTL/cmake CheckCompilerCapabilities.cmake GFTLConfig.cmake.in Intel.cmake PGI.cmake supportsInt64.F90 CheckFortranSource.cmake GFTL.mk.in NAG.cmake pointerToDeferredLengthString.F90 supportsQuadPrecision.F90 CheckFortranSourceCompiles.cmake GNU.cmake NVHPC.cmake pointerToFixedLengthString.F90

However, when I check if such files exists in the cloned repository, it seems to be there: $ find . -name LOGICAL_DEFAULT_KIND.F90 -print ./extern/fArgParse/extern/gFTL-shared/cmake/trial_sources/LOGICAL_DEFAULT_KIND.F90 ./cmake/Trial_sources/LOGICAL_DEFAULT_KIND.F90

So for some reason ./cmake/Trial_sources directory is not copied under ./extern/fArgParse/extern/gFTL-shared/extern/gFTL Am I missing something while invoking cmake? Any suggestions would be helpful and greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Please disregard the above as I think I found the issue to be due to a previous installation of pFUnit pointed through PFUNIT_DIR environment variable causing the above problem. So, I unset the environment variable for the new installation and the issue seems to be resolved.

We do occasionally see reports from users where existing installations of pFUnit (or any of its dependencies) send CMake into a weird direction. CMake is just "too good" at looking in other places. There are (semi-obscure) options that can prevent CMake from searching elsewhere. Let me know if you think you still have that issue and I can point you to those command line options.

Thanks Tom for looking into this and for your quick response. Indeed, that is exactly what seems to be happening :) I just unset PFUNIT_DIR environment variable and started from a new cloned version from the repository. Now it seems to be ok and the compiled version passed the tests. Thanks again.
