The current generated cJSONConfig.cmake holds hard coded path of libraries and makes it impossible to use in SDKs.
Use CMakePackageConfigHelpers and @PACKAGE_INIT@ to make them suit for real environment dynamically.

Hello Guillaume,
Sorry for the long delay in getting back to you.

Could you provide some more details here? Indeed, normally hardcoded
paths in text files are properly replaced by our relocate-sdk.sh
scripts. Are you sure we're talking about hardcoded paths, or paths
that are just invalid in the first place? I did a build of cjson
without your patch, and saw some /usr/include in
cJSONConfig.cmake. Are these the problemtic paths?

The problem with your proposal is that the upstream submission was
made over 2 years ago, has received no interest/feedback from
upstream, but makes some fairly substantial changes to CMakeLists.txt
that would make updating to later versions cJSON quite a lot more
difficult.
Could you push further the topic upstream, so that we have something
that is accepted upstream, and that we can safely backport in
Buildroot?
Thanks a lot,
Thomas
