It is true files are installed after the build step. However, the
various installation paths are interpolated and defined when you run
cmake; in particular, the %cmake macro used while building the RPM
expands to:

cmake -DCMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE=ON -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/usr
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR:PATH=/usr/lib64
-DINCLUDE_INSTALL_DIR:PATH=/usr/include
-DLIB_INSTALL_DIR:PATH=/usr/lib64 -DSYSCONF_INSTALL_DIR:PATH=/etc
-DSHARE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/usr/share -DLIB_SUFFIX=64
-DCMAKE_SKIP_RPATH:BOOL=ON -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS:BOOL=ON

and at this point we are able to tell where things will land with a
"make install".

I will try to implement something in the next few days so we can see
if it's going to be clean and simple as I would like it to be.

Cheers

G.
