Thanks. Some of the current install dir options default to `share/...` as
seen in `Source/CMakeInstallDestinations.cmake`. Many of the corresponding
installed files are also architecture-independent. The name `CMAKE_SHARE_DIR`
sounds like it intends to replace all uses of `share/` and architecture-
independent files when in fact it is only for gui system integration files.
Can you propose a more-specific name and description for the option?
Also, the `cmake_install_dest_default` function in the bootstrap script depends
on the source code layout in `Source/CMakeInstallDestinations.cmake` and a
"# OTHER" comment. Please revise and test that the bootstrap script extracts
the matching default.
Thanks,
-Brad
