Yes, but this could be done already right now.
We (KDE) could add an option(), which when enabled sets CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH
empty, and CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH_USE_LINK_PATH to FALSE. This would be the same
effect.
CMAKE_SKIP_RPATH is intentionally for people who just want to disable RPATH no
matter what the project does.
...maybe we (KDE) could do:
if(CMAKE_SKIP_RPATH)
set(CMAKE_SKIP_RPATH FALSE)
set(CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH_USE_LINK_PATH FALSE)
set(CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH "")
endif()
As I said in parallel to your response I'd prefer that distros
use a hammer like CMAKE_SKIP_INSTALL_RPATH so they do not have
to depend on the project supporting it with code like the above.
I'd like to discourage them from using CMAKE_SKIP_RPATH because
it is a pain for testing.
Of course your approach doesn't depend on any new CMake changes
so you can use it right now to get started.
