Description Thomas Klausner 2017-07-27 11:42:49 UTC 
The configure script looks for gtest (googletest) and gmock using gtest-root and gmock-root.

Neither of these is supplied by the current release of the combined sources by upstream, see https://github.com/google/googletest

Please adapt the checks so they work against the latest version (at the time of writing, 1.8.0 from 2016).

Since Googletest doesn't export anything that can be used for package detection your request isn't possible.

The configure and cmake tests in GnuCash are designed to find google test in the usual places used by the major Linux distributions. GMOCK_ROOT and GTEST_ROOT are fallback environment variables that one may set to account for cases where Googletest sources are installed somewhere else.
