write_cmakefile(...) does not process the parameter the parameter "library_dirs"

[rambausek]

I must admit I am not very familiar with cmake, so I do not know if this is intended or not, but since the parameter is there, I guess it is supposed to be used, and only forgotten due to not so common use.

Here is my hack, I guess you can do better than I did:

Add an entry "extra_library_dirs" to the form

 cmake_form["extra_libraries"] = ";".join(libraries)
 cmake_form["extra_library_dirs"] = ";".join(library_dirs) # added
 cmake_form["extra_include_dirs"] = ";".join(include_dirs)     
 cmake_form["extra_swig_include_dirs"] = " -I".join([" "] + swig_include_dirs)

And a patch...(added lines to the cmake template)

Could you propose a pull request, @rambausek?

Yes, I'll try to do this in the next few days. See also my comments on issue 25.
