CMake doesn't properly detect uuid-dev

[Cefn]

I'm trying to build Zorba with language bindings directly from the Bazaar repository. However, the build on Ubuntu Saucy incorrectly reports...

CMake Error at CMakeCompiler.txt:261 (MESSAGE):
  Could not find uuid/uuid.h header, which is required on Linux. On Ubuntu,
  the 'uuid-dev' package is required; look for similar packages on other
  platforms.
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  CMakeLists.txt:385 (INCLUDE)

...as I installed uuid-dev, and Synaptic reports it has installed the corresponding file at...
/usr/include/uuid/uuid.h
... How can I indicate to Cmake how to detect the library?

If I try to add the path, following http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_Useful_Variables ...

export CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/include; cmake ..

It reports the same error...

OK, I found a way to pass the extra library path, although it's not a shell environment variable as expected...

cmake -D CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/usr/include ..

This takes me on to the next error, which is the same as https://bugs.launchpad.net/zorba/+bug/1284102 ...

OK, a workaround to get the build to proceed further is to simply remove the directory for the read-pdf module from the source tree under zorba_modules altogether.

However, since read-pdf is the module I was trying to actually use, the fact this java source can't actually build, either from the release version or from the bazaar version is a blocker.

Hello, I have the exact same bug when trying to get Zorba on Raspbian with cmake. I tried both
CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/include and CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/usr/include. Both did not work. How did you get it to work, Cefn?

[Benjamin (benjamin-komen)]

Never mind, this error was caused by trying to cmake Zorba while the uuid-dev package was not installed yet and then trying again. I deleted all build files and tried again from scratch (now with uuid-dev installed beforehand, instead of installing it halfway), and it worked.
