The cause for this might be much earlier:

[...]
-- Boost version: 1.67.0
-- Found the following Boost libraries:
--   atomic
--   chrono
--   date_time
--   iostreams
--   random
--   regex
--   system
--   thread
CMake Warning at CMakeLists.txt:200 (export):
  Cannot create package registry file:

    /sbuild-nonexistent/.cmake/packages/MatrixClient/217899eff9ecbd2457b9e7580f99b5aa

  No such file or directory



-- Configuring done
-- Generating done
[...]

At least it's very suspicious that a build tries to write to a user's
home directory (which does not exist on purpose on build daemons). So
CMake not finding such a package file could be a result of not being
able to create a file (or directory) containing ".cmake/packages/" in
its path.
