The legacy forms of
Dwith-python=2/3
still circulate. If a user now specifies-Dwith-python=3
they are met with the messageInvalid option: -Dwith-python=3
. This message implies that the option-Dwith-python
is invalid and unrecognized by CMake. I changed the error message to clarify that the option is valid, but the given value is invalid, andON
orOFF
should be given instead.
