This can be checked easily by running: cpack --debug -G NSIS then you should get message like: Got some ABSOLUTE DESTINATION FILES: ...<list of files> This can be found in cmake_install.cmake as well, where some list(APPEND CPACK_ABSOLUTE_DESTINATION_FILES .... statement may be found. > (i.e. -- all things should be installed underneath > CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX in a normal 'make install' tree in order to work > well on Windows with the NSIS generator.) May be we could add some explicit warning/error in CPack when a specific generator cannot handle absolute destination?
