Conan-center-index: [package] libuuid/1.0.3: Does not produce the correct cmake file or target

[prince-chrismc]

Currently the package info is very minimal:

https://github.com/conan-io/conan-center-index/blob/24311c41e61a428eb20c6b715e14ce6e420fbbe9/recipes/libuuid/all/conanfile.py#L64-L66

From the official cmake module it's FindLibUUID.cmake

Imported Targets
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

An :ref:imported target <Imported targets> named
LibUUID::LibUUID is provided if LibUUID has been found.

I don't see this module file in CMake documentation nor in installation folder of CMake.

@prince-chrismc
That FindLibUUID.cmake file you're referring to is only used while building CMake.
Its directory contains some external dependencies of CMake.
The root /Modules folder contains all modules that are installed. I can't find uuid in this folder.

That's very interesting... google might be fouling me but it's the top result 🤔

Searching github seems like using caps is more preferable but again... search engines are echo chambers

And the first response on the vcpkg issue says to use find_library instead of find_package.

• libuuid only installs a uuid.pc file
• FindLibUUID.cmake on the cmake doc site (currently) returns a 404 (or cannot be found at cmake-modules)
