ADIOS 2.5.0: Static Build Issues Linking Blosc

Created by: ax3l

I am building a static version of ADIOS2 2.5.0 against a static version of C-Blosc 1.15.0 for a PyPI release of openPMD-api with the following CMake flags:

-DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF
-DCMAKE_POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE=ON
-DADIOS2_BUILD_EXAMPLES=OFF
-DADIOS2_BUILD_TESTING=OFF

with results in the config

ADIOS2 build configuration:

  Installation prefix: /usr
        bin: bin
        lib: lib64

Just or the record, this is the Docker environment I am building in.

ADIOS2 builds the library, but fails in the adios-config step with:

I can skip this step with -DADIOS2_INSTALL_GENERATE_CONFIG=OFF but this only transitions the problem downstream to my build of openPMD-api.

It it possible some dependencies or really just an alias are missing from the CMake targets?
