Hi,
I am very quiet, and have been answering this thread in a polite and friendly
tone, even if I have all the right to feel angry after the false claim that you
started with this sentence:

This claim is false because the variable LIB_INSTALL_DIR is not defined by
CMake at all. Anyway I've been trying to offer an easy solution to the problem
you reported. But instead of admitting that you are wrong, and finding a
constructive result from the discussion, you are insisting again:

Your links point to several RPM specs, mostly from Fedora itself, that don't
offer any demonstration that LIB_INSTALL_DIR is a CMake standard variable with
the defined semantics of having the lib suffix in it. You can't disguise your
intentions calling it an "unwritten standard". I don't buy such thing, let
alone that we are discussing here about computing science, were all the
standards should be publicly documented to deserve that title.
If you don't want step down your false claim, I'm not going to continue the
discussion.
Regards,
Pedro
