If you use install() with an absolute path DESTDIR is still honored on

But I just tried and while it works with "make install", it doesn't when
creating the packages, not only for deb, but lso for the other formats.
This may be worth a feature request (or a patch :-).
This actually sounds more like a cpack bug with absolute paths.
Yes, that was reported by me as bug
http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=4993 in May last year.
There is actually a simple patch to get absolute paths to work for CPack
(see above bug report), but no action has been taken on that yet.
Actually, it is fixed in 2.6 beta, I just never closed the bug. If you
set CPACK_SET_DESTDIR to ON in your CPack config file, then DESTDIR will
be used.
