The subject says you are using CPack 2.6, any particular reason you do
not use 2.8.x?
2.6 is becoming ancient.

It does not really work that way.
When you call CPack, it calls the install procedure with a private DESTDIR
located in the build tree (<buildroot>/_CPack_Packages/...).
This has to be like that because it's the only way for CPack to be sure to
package what is effectively installed by you project and not some left-over
which appear to be there at the install location.
That said we lack informations in order to be able to help you:
1) Which system are you using (Windows, Linux, etc...)
2) Which CPack generator are you using (ZIP, NSIS, RPM, ....)
3) You should show us the exact install commands you use
(and not the mere names of the installed files)
I suspect you use absolute path install for your libraries.
