See this fix that was applied for kdelibs:
https://quickgit.kde.org/?p=kdelibs.git&a=commitdiff&h=967fc70300d5c2ae34d39b61757b717f6fca8805
Some packages (such as taglib-extras-1.0.1 and amarok-2.8.0) ship their
own FindTaglib.cmake that does not contain this fix. Since 1.6 > 1.10
lexicographically, these unpatched packages will fail to find taglib-1.10.
