No, not silly advice. I just use the documentation on cmake.org out of habit, and they apparently don't keep it up to date. For a while, apparently, during 2.4 CMake, there was an INSTALL(DIRECTORY ) form available and they got rid of it.
A pity because other than that, there is no portable way to simply copy a directory tree to an installation directory. I did it the hard way around, putting a CMakeLists.txt in every subdirectory that needs to be copied, with an INSTALL(FILES ) command that lists all the files in that directory...
