The culprit is in CMakeCPack.cmake where it sets CPACK_PACKAGE_INSTALL_REGISTRY_KEY. That registry key is patch version specific, while the default install directory is minor version specific. So overwriting a previous install will still create a new set of registry keys, and a new entry in Add/Remove programs. -- Clinton Stimpson Elemental Technologies, Inc Computational Simulation Software, LLC www.csimsoft.com -- Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
