I am starting to experiment with the INSTALL_XXX commands so that I can
do a reasonable source distribution for my software. Part of what my
software needs is to have the binaries placed in a given directory
(/opt/package). I also need to write one or more files to /etc/opt.
The documentation states that both INSTALL_PROGRAMS and INSTALL_FILES
will prefix the value of CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX to the argument I
provide. This means that, in order to get the results that I want, I am
forced to set CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX to "/". This seems to be much more
difficult than it should be and gives me the feeling that I am violating
some sort of cmake expectation. Any enlightenment would be welcome.
I would also like to be able to insert custom commands into the install
target that would allow me to do things like creating a directory in
/var/opt/package but not copying any files. I'm not sure how to
approach this.
Thanks,
Jon Trauntvein
