[Paraview] Superbuild installation directory

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

Rick,

There is always going to be a BUILD/install. This is where all the
internal packages ParaViewSuperbuild builds are temporarily installed.
Something is resetting the CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX. I cannot find any
code in ParaViewSuperbuild itself that does that. Try this instead:
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=... (note the :PATH). Does that help?

What cmake version are you using?
