I'm migrating a project from Autotools to CMake. So far it's been a
good experience save for installing manpages.
I'm using include(GNUInstallDirs) to help make the migration easier. In
my manpage subdir I have the following CMakeLists.txt:
set(MAN_NAMES nsrlsvr.1 nsrlupdate.1)
add_custom_target(man ALL DEPENDS ${MAN_NAMES})
install(FILES ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/nsrlsvr.1 DESTINATION
${CMAKE_INSTALL_MANDIR}/man1/)
install(FILES ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/nsrlupdate.1 DESTINATION
${CMAKE_INSTALL_MANDIR}/man1/)
This seems to work just fine for a "make install", and it successfully
generates RPMs with a "make package". However, those RPMs are
uninstallable on a Fedora system:
Error: Transaction check error:
file /usr/share/man from install of nsrlsvr-1.6.1-1.x86_64 conflicts
with file from package filesystem-3.2-37.fc24.x86_64
file /usr/share/man/man1 from install of nsrlsvr-1.6.1-1.x86_64
conflicts with file from package filesystem-3.2-37.fc24.x86_64
Apparently, CMake is trying to create dirs even if they already exist.
Is there any way to suppress this? What's the best way to address this?
