no I haven't until now, but this seems not to do anything.
Even if I definitely have no parts of libngspice installed the cmake
call works without error out.

I've looks several times into the documentation, after years it's still
not really useful and easy to understand for me.

I've done some small debugging right now. If I add the following message
statements into the helper (right after the find_library call) I got
output to variables that should be empty.

I'm quite sure there is something not correct in the cmake helper for
ngspice.
