*NEVER* install in ${CMAKE_ROOT}! Read the "config-mode" section of the
find_package documentation on information about where CMake searches
for package config files. See
http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/cmake-2-8-docs.html and search for
"Config mode provides an elaborate interface". There you will find the
list of directories searched, along with an explanation of how the
directory prefixes are constructed.
