On running install i.e. cmake --build . --target install

Note: Command line tools using xcode are already installed

blosc wasn't installed in CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX

I get a similar message on my Mac box:

but contrarily to you, the library gets installed:

and I can link with that without problems. Strange.
