Description

After installing ParallelZone, I tried to build PluginPlay and got the following error:

CMake Error at build_DI_230425152114/_deps/cmaize-src/cmake/cmaize/targets/cxx_library.cmake:24 (add_library):
  Target "pluginplay" links to target "cereal::cereal" but the target was not
  found.  Perhaps a find_package() call is missing for an IMPORTED target, or
  an ALIAS target is missing?

Looks like CMaize installs ParallelZone but not its dependencies. Is this expected?

This is on a workstation with Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS 5.15.0-58-generic. I attached CMakeOutput.log.

Research direction

Start with the attached CMakeOutput.log and the CMaize installation path used when building PluginPlay. Trace how ParallelZone and its dependencies are made available to CMake, especially the missing cereal::cereal target. Done means the reported configuration error is resolved and PluginPlay can be built on the stated Ubuntu setup.
