Those should fix the most apparent issues introduced by that commit.

With my packager hat on: I'm not a fan of such implicit discovery of 
dependencies and "the find_package(Foo QUIET) .. if(NOT Foo_FOUND) 
return()" 
style somewhere in the leaf CMakeLists.txt files, because it makes possibly 
missing dependencies (and depending on that functionality) not really 
obvious.
