Unless you happen to build in /usr or /usr/local CMake won't automatically find packages in module mode, so you must already be doing something to have cmake find the module from the builddir first. The documentation of the find_package function (cmake --help-command find_package) has quite extensive documentation about the paths that are being searched and their order. Whats your find_package call? Check which of the variables mentioned in the find_package docs are set before the find_package call.
