Extending CUDA Quantum with a new Simulator: hitting build problem

[stevescia]

while trying to run thru the mySimulator example, i am getting a buld error:

cmake .. -G Ninja -DNVQIR_DIR="$CUDA_QUANTUM_PATH/lib/cmake/nvqir"
-- Configuring done (0.0s)
CMake Error in CMakeLists.txt:
IMPORTED_LOCATION not set for imported target "cudaq::cudaq-common".

CMake Error in CMakeLists.txt:
IMPORTED_LOCATION not set for imported target "cudaq::cudaq-common".

==

i've checked my .cudaq directory and everythings seems to be installed including the cudaq-common lib:
/home/gitpod/.cudaq/lib/libcudaq-common.so

anybody know what i'm missing?

btw, CmakeLists.txt file contains same a doc example:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.18 FATAL_ERROR)
project(DemoCreateNVQIRBackend VERSION 1.0.0 LANGUAGES CXX)
find_package(NVQIR REQUIRED)
nvqir_add_backend(MySimulator MySimulator.cpp)

Locally what does echo $CUDA_QUANTUM_PATH print for you?

[stevescia]

$ echo $CUDA_QUANTUM_PATH
/home/gitpod/.cudaq

here's a couple listings..
