The documentation for install() is clear, an absolute path (e.g. '/usr/lib') is used directly and relative path (e.g. 'lib') is prefixed by CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX. Another thing to note is that 'make DESTDIR=foo install' *always* works as expected!
However, the relation between install() and CPack is unclear - For some files I accidentally had an absolute install path, and during 'make package' these files got installed in the file system and they were left out of the RPM. I naively assumed that the RPM builder would use DESTDIR to control where things end up, but I must be wrong. Is this a bug? - The variable CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX is not used at all during RPM building. CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX is /usr/local, but files get put into /usr in the RPM.
