Summary

0010558: Make install doesn't work well.

Description

-------------------------------------------------------------
All Platforms:
-------------------------------------------------------------
* Make install doesn't work well -- looks like prefix is being ignored.

From David Partyka:

Mike Jackson, if you export DESTDIR=<some_dir> and then make install you should get the desired behavior. Though this is more of just a testing feature that Dave Cole put in.

Steps To Reproduce

Additional Information

From Mike Jackson:

I tried what you suggested on a "git pull origin master" on 3/17/2010 at 10:15 AM EDT and when I run the make install I get the following:

CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/Users/Shared/Toolkits/ParaView
export DESTDIR=$CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX
make install

I then get an "Applications/ParaView-3.7.0.app" created in the /Users/Shared/Toolkits/ParaView directory
I also get another folder hierarchy created:

/Users/Shared/Toolkits/ParaView/Users/Shared/Toolkits/ParaView/bin with another paraview.app inside that. So basically the "make install" does NOT work at all on OS X. It is totally messed up. And my custom client plugins were NOT copied into the proper folder structure in any of those folders above.
