Currently, thrift tries to find flex and bison using:
vcpkg_find_acquire_program(FLEX)
vcpkg_find_acquire_program(BISON)
https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg/blob/master/ports/thrift/portfile.cmake
However, this only works on windows..
Solution:
Use find_program on other platforms:
if (WIN32)
vcpkg_find_acquire_program(FLEX)
vcpkg_find_acquire_program(BISON)
else()
find_program(FLEX flex)
if(NOT FLEX)
message(FATAL_ERROR "Could not find flex. Please install it through your package manager.")
endif()
find_program(BISON bison)
if(NOT BISON)
message(FATAL_ERROR "Could not find bison. Please install it through your package manager.")
endif()
endif()I can make a PR with the fix included if this sounds ok?
