Hello Benny, thanks for the tip

adding:

Leads to the same error.

Removing everything and letting this alone:

include(cmake/options_linux.cmake)

Leads to the next error:

This completely surpasses me, I am completely ignorant.
Thank you very much for the suggestions. I have to think that if 
Telegram Desktop is not available in the repositories it is because it 
is really difficult to compile and work on NetBSD and if those who 
understand it have not already done so, there is little I will be able 
to do.

Thanks
Ramiro.
