I don't want to merge/sudo the test builds into my (production) distribution.

I was cheating with: cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \ -DKICAD_SCRIPTING=ON \ -DKICAD_SCRIPTING_MODULES=ON \ -DKICAD_SCRIPTING_WXPYTHON=ON \ ../../ make -j8 make DESTDIR=~/SW install because: cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \ -DKICAD_SCRIPTING=ON \ -DKICAD_SCRIPTING_MODULES=ON \ -DKICAD_SCRIPTING_WXPYTHON=ON \ -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=~/SW \ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/SW \ -DDEFAULT_INSTALL_PATH=~/SW \ ../../ make -j8 make install fails with: -- Installing: /home/admin/SW/share/applications/pcbnew.desktop -- Installing: /home/admin/SW/share/applications/bitmap2component.desktop -- Installing: /usr/local/bin/_cvpcb.kiface CMake Error at cvpcb/cmake_install.cmake:50 (file): file INSTALL cannot copy file "/home/admin/share/project/kicad-src/src/build/release/cvpcb/_cvpcb.kiface" to "/usr/local/bin/_cvpcb.kiface". Call Stack (most recent call first): cmake_install.cmake:96 (include) Is there a bug hidden or is it just my recklessness?
