This is resolved by the same commit as the related issue, 0008682. It is "fixed" enough to do the following in CVS HEAD of CMake.

cvs commit -m "BUG: Fix issue 0008682. Use CPACK_NSIS_DISPLAY_NAME in appropriate places rather than CPACK_PACKAGE_INSTALL_DIRECTORY. Clean separation of these two variables (which have the same value by default) allows an easy workaround for issue 0007881, too." NSIS.template.in

/cvsroot/CMake/CMake/Modules/NSIS.template.in,v <-- NSIS.template.in
new revision: 1.36; previous revision: 1.35

To allow including the Vendor name in the installation directory, do this:

  In product1's CMakeLists.txt file:
  SET(CPACK_PACKAGE_INSTALL_DIRECTORY "Vendor\\Product1")
  SET(CPACK_NSIS_DISPLAY_NAME "Product1 Display Name")

  In product2's CMakeLists.txt file:
  SET(CPACK_PACKAGE_INSTALL_DIRECTORY "Vendor\\Product2")
  SET(CPACK_NSIS_DISPLAY_NAME "Product2 Display Name")

(That's for Win32 NSIS with the "\\" in the string. You'll want to use "/" for those variables on other platforms...)

See notes in related issue 0008682 regarding the re-fix for that issue...

The new variable CPACK_NSIS_PACKAGE_NAME should be set in addition to CPACK_NSIS_DISPLAY_NAME -- the PACKAGE_NAME variant is used in the installer itself, the DISPLAY_NAME variant is shown in the Add/Remove Programs control panel.
