Expected behavior

cmake3 . should create a makefile

Actual behavior

cmake3 throws an error about popt being missing, when all possible popt-* modules are installed.

Environment

Operating system: CentOS Linux release 7.9.2009 (Core)

Installation method / source: tar.gz distribution from Github.

Logfiles

I do not believe there are any log files that are applicable here, however it might be noted that the cmake output does not include anything referencing popt.

Hello @misterjmw

It seems to be more like a configuration problem than a bug. In our reference system (Debian 11 Bullseye) it works as expected.

Cmake is using pkgconfig for module check. I would suggest to check if the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable is set, and if the .pc file is even provided in your distribution.

$ grep -r popt CMakeLists.txt 
pkg_check_modules (POPT REQUIRED popt)

Therefore, closing this as invalid for now, since this might be an environmental issue.

Please open a new topic in the [Greenbone Forum](https://forum.greenbone.net/ for support). Once it has been found to be a real bug we can still re-open this issue here.
