0010410: Development install tree: cannot clean intermediate targets
With PARAVIEW_INSTALL_DEVELOPMENT turned on.

- make && make install
- the bin/ and lib/ are built

Since the install directory contains about 5800 "*.cxx.o" files (273MB
worth), it needs to be cleaned up before distributing the development
install tree for building plugins.

Using the make target 'clean' removes the "*.cxx.o* files, but also
removes all of the bin/ files - rendering the installation useless.

On a positive note, the contents of lib/paraview-MAJOR are left
intact.


It seems that a clean development install tree cannot be realized
without writing external cleanup scripts.

No tags attached.

Where are you installing to? Are you installing over top of your build tree?

Use CPack instead of make install as per:

Preferred method of doing "make install" is cpack. Bug closed.
