My mistake.
You should define: CPACK_PACKAGING_INSTALL_PREFIX for defining your
"packaging" prefix.

This must be true for all CPack generator.

We "may" set CPACK_PACKAGING_INSTALL_PREFIX to "CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX"
but this would break backward compatibility...

CPack generators (including CPackRPM)  were used to provided their
**own** default value
for "CPACK_PACKAGING_INSTALL_PREFIX".

For RPM it is "/usr".

Patch are always welcome (but in this case It may not be acceptable
because it would break backward compatibility for a problem which
already have a solution)

If you do want to provide some patch please open a bug tracker entry
and attach your patch
to the tracker and/or provide some git repo containing your proposal
and indicate its url
in the tracker.  I.e. always open tracker entry for a patch proposal.
