That's strange. I have 1.6.7 (I just fetched if from the web site this
week), and it does not propagate the --prefix value. I re-executed the
configure with a prefix and I used "make -n install" to see what would be
executed, and there was no sign of my specified prefix (I used a strange
value and then grep'ed for it (it does show up in Bootstrap/config.status
in the usual autoconf-generated sed line for @prefix@)). The generated
Makefile seems to use $DESTDIR to change the installation root, but does
not include the prefix.
Is there someway to confirm that I have 1.6.7? cmake --version only says
that it is 1.6 .
