Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Status Cmake Win32 support

wsutil has stopped linking for me.  It's looking for gmodule-2.0.lib.  Looking at the linker input the library is specified but without the full path to ...\wireshark-win-32-libs\gtk2\lib.
 
In fact the linker input for this target isn't very good at all, it has gmodule-2.0.lib, glib-2.0.lib and intl.lib all listed without paths and glib-2.0.lib listed with the path to the lib in ...\gtk3\lib!
 
Another question that might be more difficult to answer, why does CMake generate a linker command that has absolute paths to the libs and doesn't specify additional library directories:
