Sorry, I was sloppy. The directory exists, but it doesn't have cmake
files:

% cmake .. -D CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH:STRING=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cmake
CMake Error: The source directory "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cmake" does not appear to contain CMakeLists.txt.
Specify --help for usage, or press the help button on the CMake GUI.

That would be good. For the Debian package we can specify any runtime
dependencies in the binary package (if they aren't already explicit from
the linker output). It sounds like that would fulfil all requirements of
itksnap.
