-Subject: [PATCH] parpack: optional installation
+Subject: [PATCH] Support optional installation of parpack in CMake config
+ files
 
-In MSYS2, the parpack library is split into a separate package.
+Some distributions (e.g., Debian/Ubuntu or MSYS2) split the parpack library into
+a separate package.
+That leads to issues if their arpack package is installed but their parpack
+package is not.
 
-Support using the CMake config files in the case where the parpack package is
-not installed.
+Auto-generated CMake target files check whether the respective files actually
+exist on disc. Because both the arpack import target and the parpack import
+target are included in the same auto-generated CMake target file of arpack-ng
+(if it was configured to be built parpack), that leads to a fatal error when
+attempting to import the arpack CMake target in downstream projects while the
+parpack files are not installed.
+
+Support using the CMake config files in the case where distributions split
+parpack into a separate package, and that package is not installed.
+That is done by auto-generating a separate CMake target file for parpack,
+and checking whether it exists before including it in the CMake config file.
+Distributors can then move the CMake target file for parpack to their
+separate package.
