thanks for the tip though but my current problem is in regards to the linking
of external libs, I've used to add them to the TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES but it was
suggested here not to use it in that way.
btw, trying your suggestion generates this warnings:
WARNING: Target "AgathaEngine" requests linking to directory
"/home/dagg/workspace/AgathaHud/bin/libs". Targets may link only to libraries.
CMake is dropping the item.
