Unable to locally install qsimcirq

[svelury2]

I am trying to locally install qsimcirq to do some GPU simulations of quantum circuits. I've already installed the CUDA toolkit and have added the NVCC compiler to my path (I'm doing this in a conda environment). I've also installed cuQuantum. During the make process, all the necessary files, including the NVCC compiler and cuStatevec, were properly detected. However, when I try to install using pip install . , I get several CMake warnings & two errors that I am not sure how to resolve. I am currently running CMake 3.30.4. Any feedback on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated.
