CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:58 (target_link_libraries):
The link interface of target "nvtx" contains:
-- Generating done
CUDA::nvToolsExt
but the target was not found. Possible reasons include:
* There is a typo in the target name.
* A find_package call is missing for an IMPORTED target.
* An ALIAS target is missing.
CMake Generate step failed. Build files cannot be regenerated correctly.
Error: Process completed with exit code 1.
It seems the installer is installing everything it needs, including NVTX - but somehow, CMake is not then able to locate the installed NVTX library.
Why would this happen? What can I do about it?
