Could not find a package configuration file provided by "plunginlib"

I did the steps in https://docs.ros.org/en/humble/Tutorials/Beginner-Client-Libraries/Pluginlib.html and it failed in colcon build --packages-select polygon_base polygon_plugins, errors following:

--- stderr: polygonbase CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:10 (findpackage): By not providing "Findplunginlib.cmake" in CMAKEMODULEPATH this project has asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by
"plunginlib", but CMake did not find one.

Could not find a package configuration file provided by "plunginlib" with any of the following names:

plunginlibConfig.cmake
plunginlib-config.cmake

Add the installation prefix of "plunginlib" to CMAKEPREFIXPATH or set "plunginlib_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files. If "plunginlib" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been installed.

--- Failed <<< polygon_base [0.49s, exited with code 1]

I did

sudo apt-get install ros-humble-pluginlib

but it didn't work.

CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "plunginlib", but CMake did not find one.

Note how the error message says plunginlib.

The correct name of the package would be pluginlib, without the extra n between the u and the g.
