Experienced a failure to connect to mirrors.kodi.tv while building.  The mirror came back up but it got me wondering why this build dep doesn't have the ability to be predownloaded.   Many others offer the ability to pre-download and point to those tarballs, but not rapidjson.  Is this by design?

For example, for an internal ffmpeg
 

Code:

% cmake ... -DENABLE_INTERNAL_FFMPEG=ON -DFFMPEG_URL=/src/ffmpeg-5.1.2-Nexus-Alpha3 ...

Other dependencies that support this are:
libdvdcss, libdvdnav, libdvdread, ffmpeg, fmt, spdlog, crossguid, fstrcmp, flatbuffers, and libudfread.

Thanks for the insights.
 

Code:

Install the project...
