Any progress on this?

@themightyoarfish our documentation mentions that you need to install libjsoncpp-dev to build the project:
https://static.ouster.dev/sdk-docs/cpp/building.html

Do you still face the issue even when installing libjsoncpp-dev through your system package manager?

I've looked into this again, and on Ubuntu the problem does not appear to arise, as libjsoncpp-dev ships with cmake scripts (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cmake/jsoncpp/jsoncppConfig.cmake on 18.04) . On macos however, where many will install jsoncpp with homebrew, this does not hold. I guess this is more of a brew packaging issue, but it might still be worth installing the custom cmake modules like in #460.
After all, on ubuntu this custom module shouldn't be needed at all, should it?

So even if macOS isn't supported as such, I'm curious why the custom cmake module is needed at all, when one is shipped with the apt package.

I don't think you need to install Findjsoncpp.cmake into your system to make use of it, if you are compiling the SDK you should be able to make use of the file simply by referencing the sdk cmake folder:

list(APPEND CMAKE_MODULE_PATH ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/ouster-sdk/cmake)

Still a problem on current macos 116aa44b7699134c85bac63dd194331a789b8fa6 can't be used in client cmake projects because JsonCpp does not get found

CMake Warning at /opt/homebrew/Cellar/cmake/3.30.2/share/cmake/Modules/CMakeFindDependencyMacro.cmake:76 (find_package):
  By not providing "Findjsoncpp.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has

  Add the installation prefix of "jsoncpp" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set

CMake Warning at CMakeLists.txt:671 (find_package):
  Found package configuration file:

    /Users/rasmus/Documents/Projects/autocrane-core/deps/lib/cmake/OusterSDK/OusterSDKConfig.cmake

  but it set OusterSDK_FOUND to FALSE so package "OusterSDK" is considered to
  be NOT FOUND.  Reason given by package:

  OusterSDK could not be found because dependency jsoncpp could not be found.

It seems like the simple fix is just install the jsoncpp cmake module with the ouster library.

And then you can't even use your own install of jsoncpp with the cmake integration (which homebrew seems to not have), because the ouster library links to a target called jsoncpp_lib, which only exists when using the bundled JsonCpp cmake module and not with JsonCpp's own cmake files.

A change such as this fixes it: https://github.com/ouster-lidar/ouster-sdk/pull/618/files
