I suggest to take another look at available information sources. Example: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.19/variable/CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX.html * The support for the environment variable “DESTDIR” is limited. * It might occasionally be safer to express the intention also by a corresponding CMake variable.
