I have actually run into a similar problem with ParMetis. I fixed it on my
end by changing the ParMetis CMakeLists.txt lines

set(GKLIB_PATH METIS/GKlib CACHE PATH "path to GKlib")
set(METIS_PATH METIS CACHE PATH "path to METIS")

to

set(GKLIB_PATH ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/metis/GKlib CACHE PATH "path to
GKlib
")
set(METIS_PATH ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/metis CACHE PATH "path to METIS")

Your mileage may vary.
