Summary0004878: CPack/NSIS - wrong link for startmenu
DescriptionWhen I install an executable to CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX (install (TARGETS marble DESTINATION "")) cpack creates a wrong start menu entry for the executable (CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX/bin). To solve this I have to edit the generated nsi script by hand :(

I also asked on cmake@cmake.org without any reply:

 I think this can be done with a DESTDIR CPack install now.

 This seems to be still an issue with cmake/cpack 2.8.x.

 I had to read the CPack sources to finally come across this (who reads documentation, really), but this seems to be fixed since 2.8.4:

   CPACK_NSIS_EXECUTABLES_DIRECTORY - Creating NSIS start menu links
   assumes that they are in 'bin' unless this variable is set.
   For example, you would set this to 'exec' if your executables are
   in an exec directory.
