Control: severity -1 wishlist

I would be tempted to just close the bug, but just in case I missed
the obvious, I am simply downgraded the severity.

Why do you think that arch-dependant *.cmake files should go into
/usr/share ? GDCM is also installing all *.cmake into /usr/lib since
most of them are arch dependant anyway (this is technically required
to install arch-dep files into /usr/lib BTW).

CMake handle *.cmake nicely though the usual find_package() API. This
is documented using:

$ cmake --help-command find_package

You may skip directly to the UNIX section, which you may have been missing:

[...]
       CMake constructs a set of possible installation prefixes for the
       package.  Under each prefix several directories are searched for a
       configuration file.  The tables below show the directories searched.
       Each entry is meant for installation trees following Windows (W), UNIX
       (U), or Apple (A) conventions.

         <prefix>/                                               (W)
         <prefix>/(cmake|CMake)/                                 (W)
         <prefix>/<name>*/                                       (W)
         <prefix>/<name>*/(cmake|CMake)/                         (W)
         <prefix>/(lib/<arch>|lib|share)/cmake/<name>*/          (U)
         <prefix>/(lib/<arch>|lib|share)/<name>*/                (U)
         <prefix>/(lib/<arch>|lib|share)/<name>*/(cmake|CMake)/  (U)
