Hallo, thank you very much. Of course, the correct sequence (alternative to 'make install') is
cmake OPTIONS path_to_CMakeLists_dir make cmake -D COMPONENT=dist -P cmake_install.cmake path_to_CMakeLists_dir Now it is working for the installation. Also thank you for the links, they are very usefull ... > For example DEB and RPM don't: > http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=7645 > NSIS does. > TGZ, ZIP ==> I don't know. > > What CPack generator are you using?

I just thought about kind of reverse approach - to configure what NOT TO do, and use the standard approach (make install, make package) then; the specification of what to do in some circumstances (using the COMPONENT) is also OK, but you must always think twice before you start an action (install, for example), even if you just want to a kind of 'standard' action like install, or package (well, I mean in 'simple' cases, which the mine is). By no means I wanted to say that COMPONET is bad - as I read it is very powerfull ... Thank you, DanT. _______________________________________________ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
