On install I would need cmake to portably create some empty directories that

structure in my case that structure does not exists. I know I could probably
search for some external mkdir command and use it but then I would have to
think of any possible platform and try to find the command for that platform
and also worry about whatever parameters it wants. cmake already has logic to
create directories in a platform independent way used by the various
INSTALL(...) commands, it would be nice if there was a way to use it to
create some arbitrary directories on install (their path of course it still
respects CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX and such).
To solve this in automake I just created some dummy "<stuff>_dir" variables
that automake interpreted and created those empty directories on install. I
would like to know if there is something similar for cmake, thank you!
You could try assembling the empty directory structure with
FILE(MAKE_DIRECTORY ${foo_BINARY_DIR}/path)
and install that.
