Conan: how to obtain header-only lib for source distribution?
I'm using Conan on a little project. One of the dependencies for the project is a single-header, header-only lib. Usually, I use the cmake_find_package generator and it works fine. Conan downloads the library into its system-wide library store, and generates a Findargs.cmake file in the build dir, which references that global path.
