Shouldn't the last line of the example be

target_link_library(y xLib)

?

Ah yes, this is what I've tested.

A real world example is here:
git://github.com/syntheticpp/kst.git [^]

cmake -GNinja ../kst/cmake/ -Dkst_3rdparty_build=1
ninja libkst2_fits_gaussian_unweighted.so

ninja: error: '3rdparty/installed/lib/libgsl.a', needed by 'build/lib/kst2/plugins/libkst2_fits_gaussian_unweighted.so', missing and no known rule to make it

libgsl.a is build as external project:
https://github.com/syntheticpp/kst/blob/master/cmake/3rdparty/CMakeLists.txt [^]

I've been bitten by this. Is there a workaround, other than manually building the ExternalProject targets first?

Have a look at the related bug 0013538.

This issue is now trying my patience on a daily basis — if a fix is yet again going to be punted until a future release, I'd like to have a go at tackling it myself. I'm not familiar with CMake's code -- where would be the best place to start looking?

I've opened a pull request with my initial stab at fixing this: https://github.com/Kitware/CMake/pull/68. [^] Please let me know where to take it from here.

I'm resolving this as a duplicate of issue 0014963 which describes the larger problem. Either 0014963 needs to be resolved on the CMake side, or the Ninja issue linked in 0014747:0035830 needs to be resolved on the Ninja side. That will resolve this issue.
