-# This module defines the following variables:
-#
-#   BLOSC2_FOUND        - System has BLOSC2
-#   BLOSC2_INCLUDE_DIRS - The BLOSC2 include directory
-#   BLOSC2_LIBRARIES    - Link these to use BLOSC2
-#   BLOSC2_VERSION      - Version of the BLOSC2 library to support
-#
-# and the following imported targets:
-#   Blosc2::Blosc2 - The core BLOSC2 library
-#
-# You can also set the following variable to help guide the search:
-#   BLOSC2_ROOT - The install prefix for BLOSC2 containing the
-#                     include and lib folders
-#                     Note: this can be set as a CMake variable or an
-#                           environment variable.  If specified as a CMake
-#                           variable, it will override any setting specified
-#                           as an environment variable.
