[cmake-developers] Fwd: [Bug 894805] Re: QT_IMPORTS_DIR is not defined when no QML plugins are installed

[Clinton Stimpson]

This is interesting...

The intent of FindQt4.cmake is to find the Qt installation so it can be used.  
But in that bug report, the QT_IMPORTS_DIR variable is being used to determine 
the "<qt_dir>/imports" directory to install their qml plugins - which is into 
the Qt installation.  Its a problem for them because there is no imports 
directory to begin with.

In other words... they have something like this:
find_package(Qt4)
...
install( ... DESTINATION ${QT_IMPORTS_DIR})


Is there a CMake convention for this kind of thing?
