You shouldn't use the CMAKE_*_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY variables to write
your project's binaries to their final installation directory under
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX. Instead, provide appropriate INSTALL() commands
for each target and make use of INSTALL()'s CONFIGURATIONS clause, e.g.
INSTALL(TARGETS plugin
RUNTIME DESTINATION Debug/bin/plugin
LIBRARY DESTINATION Debug/lib/plugin
CONFIGURATIONS Debug)
INSTALL(TARGETS plugin
RUNTIME DESTINATION Release/bin/plugin
LIBRARY DESTINATION Release/lib/plugin
CONFIGURATIONS Release)
etc. for further configurations and other targets to be installed.
