Notes
(0029300) Eric NOULARD (developer) 2012-04-22 13:28	I just pushed a modified version of the patch provided by Igor on stage/EnhanceBash-completion-part1 Starting with bash completion 2.0 the completion files should be installed in /usr/share/<package>/completions in fact DATADIR/completions. This is ok since it is a relative install path. Before that completion files should be put in /etc/bash_completion.d/ directory. This is an ABSOLUTE path. I decided to go for a relative path install whatever the bash completion version found because no ABSOLUTE install destination is currently used in CMake source. Moreover this would break CPack Archive generators. Distros packager may then decide to create some links from DATADIR/completions to /etc/bash_completion.d/ but at least they will have completion files at hand. Could some CMake developer review the branch and tell me if the modification seems acceptable. Currently none of the files located in Docs/ (vim or emacs file) installed why is it so?

(0029312) Brad King (manager) 2012-04-23 10:32	How is find_package (Bash-Completion 2.0 QUIET) expected to succeed? Does that package install a CMake package configuration file? Even if it is found the reported location may require admin access to install even if the CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX points to the user home directory. This would break the easy installation in user home directories we have now. The simplest solution is to install all the Docs/ helper files to the CMake documentation directory. Then packagers can install symlinks in the appropriate places that point over to the installed location.

Yes, at least this is the objective of a second patch (for bash-completion not CMake): https://github.com/GArik/bash-completion/commit/f523a45d6992347554e8e52dbb4d11df90c34bff [^] > This would break the easy installation in user home directories we have now. That's what I thought in the first place. > install all the Docs/ helper files to the CMake documentation directory You mean to CMAKE_DOC_DIR ? I'll do that. By the way shall we keep obsolete INSTALL_FILES (instead of INSTALL(FILES )) in CMake source in order to keep backward compatibility in order to compile new CMake with an old one?

(0029315) Brad King (manager) 2012-04-23 11:14	Re 0013056:0029313: Either CMAKE_DOC_DIR or another place you think is appropriate. install(FILES) can be used now instead of the old install_files() command. CMake now either bootstraps or requires at least CMake 2.6.3 to build.

(0029317) Eric NOULARD (developer) 2012-04-23 14:54	OK I did delete the old branch on stage, rewrite a proper history log and repush to stage and merge to next. Merge topic 'EnhanceBash-completion-part1' into next 83729f9 Install editors helper files 5b97942 Enhancement of bash completion scripts given by Igor Murzov. Removing Docs/cmake-completion Pushing upstream next To git@cmake.org:cmake.git
