Hi,

It's seems that you might be using kind of absolute path schem:
cpack relies on modification of CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX to install files in
its own directory and CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX is only preprended when using
relative path with INSTALL(...) commands.

You should ensure that all destination path given to INSTALL command
are relatives.

your installation path is:
/home/software/plplot_cvs/installcmake/share/doc/plplot/AUTHORS

taken from one of my projects:
/home/thomas/Develop/Workspace/mGlib/build/_CPack_Packages/Linux/TZ/mGlib-base-0
.1.1-Linux/lib/libmGlib-base.so

notice that files are installed under build directory, in a subdirectory
called _CPack...

Hope it helps,
Thomas
