Description

I try to build this addon with:
cmake -DADDONS_TO_BUILD=visualization.projectm -DADDON_SRC_PREFIX=../.. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local -DAPP_RENDER_SYSTEM=gles ../../xbmc19/cmake/addons

But for some reason this isn't passed on to this: https://github.com/xbmc/visualization.projectm/blob/2ab880363a3b1747c7347ce4a5317dd7ec9ea300/depends/common/projectm/CMakeLists.txt#L4

So I had to remove the if statement in order to successfully build and run it on my ODroid board.
