But my real problem is then that I can't get CPack to work without
CPACK_SET_DESTDIR.
My (inherited) CMakeList.txt:s does specify
set(CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX /usr/local)
but also things like
install(... DESTINATION ${BIN_INSTALL_DIR} ...)
set(BIN_INSTALL_DIR ${EXEC_INSTALL_PREFIX}/bin)
set(EXEC_INSTALL_PREFIX ${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX})
I am starting to suspect that the expansion of this binds all install
targets to the absolute path in CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX. And that it instead
should be something like
install(... DESTINATION ${BIN_INSTALL_DIR} ...)
set(BIN_INSTALL_DIR bin)
Precisely!!
But I doubt the order of definition of your vars is the good one:
set(BIN_INSTALL_DIR bin)
install(... DESTINATION ${BIN_INSTALL_DIR} ...)
should be the good one.
It actually is, so I'm good there ;-)
The baseline is
"Do not use absolute prefix to install(... DESTINATION ...)
unless you really want to put something in absolute place"
(like /etc/what/ever.conf)
And I've fixed that, so now it actually packages the correct files.
But, next question ;-)
Now that I am using a relative (to CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX) installation
scheme, I'd also like to have my TGZ/TZ/ZIP package to work that way.
But the files in the .tgz have names starting with my application name
(package name) and then the default install path:
$ tar ztvf cgreen-1.0.0-beta3.tar.gz
-rwxr-xr-x Thomas/None 91772 2012-11-25 21:13
cgreen-1.0.0-beta3/usr/local/bin/cgreen-runner.exe
-rwxr-xr-x Thomas/None 187260 2012-11-25 21:13
cgreen-1.0.0-beta3/usr/local/bin/cygcgreen-1.dll
-rw-r--r-- Thomas/None 4552 2012-10-02 16:52
cgreen-1.0.0-beta3/usr/local/include/cgreen/assertions.h
-rw-r--r-- Thomas/None 659 2012-08-31 00:00
cgreen-1.0.0-beta3/usr/local/include/cgreen/breadcrumb.h
-rw-r--r-- Thomas/None 463 2012-08-15 19:20
cgreen-1.0.0-beta3/usr/local/include/cgreen/cdash_reporter.h
So I'd like to lose the "cgreen-1.0.0-beta3/usr/local/" bit. I've hunted
and experimented with CPACK_INSTALL_PREFIX,
CPACK_PACKAGE_INSTALL_DIRECTORY, CPACK_PACKAGING_INSTALL_PREFIX, etc.
etc. most of which are very poorly documented. I even found
CPACK_TOPLEVEL_TAG which from the docs ("Directory for the installed
files") looked like it could have something to do with this.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
