Oh cool, I didn't realize that :)

Thanks for the report and investigation.

Can you provide the command line you are using for the cmake generation step?

Ok, I removed zlib from my path, and I can reproduce the problem. ```ZLIB library not found, compiling 1.2.11 CMake Error at cmake/OpenEXRSetup.cmake:241 (add_library): add_library cannot create ALIAS target "ZLIB::ZLIB"...

Ok, thanks for the extra investigation. Yes, I built with CMake 3.17. I'll update my cmake and try again.

@Camuvingian Not yet. I gathered the related issues and related them to this one.

using internal zlib is an externally controllable variable, OPENEXR_FORCE_INTERNAL_ZLIB, can you let us know if that helps resolve your issue?

The issue sounds like zlib_static is not being propagated as a link dependency. If this is broken, it should have been caught by CI, but perhaps we are not testing...
