[16:28:53] stuarta: hampton: why does the CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX have to be writable? i build as myself, then install as root. does cmake not support this workflow?
[18:17:42] hampton: cmake doesn't support that. cmake is designed around projects that build/install with one command. MythTV is a "super" project, that coordinates anywhere from 5 projects (for linux) to 30ish projects (for android and windows), and each individual project is built and installed before the next project is started.
[18:19:05] hampton: I think what you want is to set CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX to a temporary directory and MYTH_RUN_PREFIX to the directory you want to run from. Then when everything is build you copy everything in
[18:19:21] hampton: CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX to MYTH_RUN_PREFIX.
[18:20:41] hampton: I know someone is using cmake builds for creating mythtv packages, but I don't remember who. We went a couple of rounds making it work, and iirc MYTH_RUN_PREFIX was the magic. I haven't tested this myself.
