Information on your system

• Spack: 0.24.0.dev0 (064e709)
• Python: 3.12.3
• Platform: linux-ubuntu24.04-aarch64

Additional information

The fix is simply to add depends_on("gmake", type="build") in the package, but before I do a PR, I'd like your opinion on a couple of other things, @hyoklee:

• Why does the package have depends_on("cmake", when="@1.12.1:") when the code doesn't use cmake to be compiled? The list of dependencies here doesn't include cmake. - I can't find where pkg-config is used but since it's listed as a dependency in the link above, I'm going to assume it's needed. However I doubt it's needed at run time, only at build time.

General information

• I have run spack debug report and reported the version of Spack/Python/Platform
• I have run spack maintainers <name-of-the-package> and @mentioned any maintainers
• I have uploaded the build log and environment files
• I have searched the issues of this repo and believe this is not a duplicate
