I would like to add that this should REALLY be the DEFAULT behavior, because if it is not when you build your package you may end-up EFFECTIVELY installing part of your package when only building it. At least when requiring cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.6). I personnally would break backward compat' on this. I wasn't able to add comment or attach file on the http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=4993 because (may be) the bug is closed. -- Erk _______________________________________________ CMake mailing list [email protected] http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
