Yes.

It depends on what you call build targets. Looking at the netooper2
code base, it's indeed 3 separate projects together, each with its own
CMake build system. I.e, there is no top-level CMakeLists.txt to build
the different components.

So we would have to do the CMake configuration/build/install steps
manually, as the cmake-package infrastructure only deals with a single
top-level CMake build infrastructure, which netopeer2 doesn't have.

In the light of this in the end, perhaps it makes sense to have three
packages like you did. It kind of reflects the fact that even though
they are stored in the same Git repo, they are three independent
components each with its own build system.

Peter, Arnout, Yann, any thoughts ? See
https://github.com/CESNET/Netopeer2 for the code base.
