That should probably be patched.
I talked to one of the developers and he said it would be better to
go
ahead and put everything in /usr/lib{,64}/freecad and symlink the
binaries to /usr/bin. It makes my system install option pretty much
useless since you can set the install location by overriding
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX, but I still have to setup the proper rpath's so
everything can find everything else...
I'm not sure I like this solution… I think fixing the Python code to support
systemwide installations properly would be a better solution than this hack.
Though *I* won't be using that non-Free software (well, based on a non-Free
library) anyway. ;-)
