The uninstall target in the project is always shown even if you don't have the install target. It should really be gated behind the ${YAML_CPP_INSTALL}. As a workaround in my projects I have been adding a dummy target before fetching yaml-cpp to prevent this:
# Get rid of yaml uninstall target
add_library(uninstall INTERFACE)
set(YAML_CPP_BUILD_TESTS OFF CACHE BOOL "")
set(YAML_CPP_BUILD_TOOLS OFF CACHE BOOL "")
set(YAML_CPP_BUILD_CONTRIB OFF CACHE BOOL "")
set(YAML_BUILD_SHARED_LIBS OFF CACHE BOOL "")
set(YAML_CPP_INSTALL OFF CACHE BOOL "")
set(YAML_CPP_FORMAT_SOURCE OFF CACHE BOOL "")
