It's being included from this line in the CMakeLists.txt:

Line 89 in 3ccce94

${POPLIB_ROOT_DIR}

Found a possible solution, though I havent delved into it that much:

1. If you navigate to PopLib's root cmakesettings.json file you should be able to modify BUILD_MISC_DOCS to be false. I dont know if that affects the VERSION file, though.

Also, line 89 (on my end) is completely different from yours. Its a CURL_ZLIB boolean property. Do you use a different branch other than dev..?
