Here's an example of what I mean:

  bash-3.2# cmake ..
  -- Found OCAML: 3.11.0
  -- prefix: /usr/local
  -- Configuring done
  -- Generating done
  -- Build files have been written to: /myrepos/ocaml-libs.hg/_build
  bash-3.2# make DESTDIR=_install install > /dev/null
  bash-3.2# tree _install/
  _install/
  `-- usr
      `-- local
          `-- lib
              `-- ocaml
                  `-- ocamltest
                      |-- META
                      |-- ocamltest.a
                      |-- ocamltest.cma
                      |-- ocamltest.cmi
                      |-- ocamltest.cmxa
                      |-- ocamltest.ml
                      `-- ocamltest.mli

  5 directories, 7 files
  bash-3.2# make package > /dev/null
  bash-3.2# rpm -ql -p ocaml-libs-0.0.0-Linux.rpm
  /usr
  /usr/lib
  /usr/lib/ocaml
  /usr/lib/ocaml/ocamltest
  /usr/lib/ocaml/ocamltest/META
  /usr/lib/ocaml/ocamltest/ocamltest.a
  /usr/lib/ocaml/ocamltest/ocamltest.cma
  /usr/lib/ocaml/ocamltest/ocamltest.cmi
  /usr/lib/ocaml/ocamltest/ocamltest.cmxa
  /usr/lib/ocaml/ocamltest/ocamltest.ml
  /usr/lib/ocaml/ocamltest/ocamltest.mli

I'll take a look at this since I need to fix what's included in the source RPM
next :-)
