The generator expressions for accessing the right library files to link to and install seem to be different on each platform. However, note that it is a bit unorthodox to access the build products of an external project via the CMake target object. The current setup exists because the "libassimp" interface target can either represent an Assimp installation somewhere in the file system, or the build products of the Assimp that gets built as part of Doomsday.
