According to cmake doc, we cannot assume
CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR
is a relative path. People often usecmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR=/some/custome/library/path
to specify where the libraries should install to.Simply use
lib
as temporary libdir is probably a solution.Inconsistent
CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR
problem addressed by @aarlt and @chriseth ( #3467 (comment) ) is fixed by passing-DCMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR=lib
to jsoncpp's cmake.We don't need
GNUInstallDirs
here because jsoncpp's build is only temporary used anyway.@chfast could you take a look? Thanks so much
