I find cmake's actions for VTK very puzzling...
                                                                                
Why is that cmake installs .so libraries *both* in
EXECUTABLE_OUTPUT_PATH *and* LIBRARY_OUTPUT_PATH/vtk (note the added
directory "vtk") and not just (and only) in LIBRARY_OUTPUT_PATH?
                                                                                
Why is that cmake installs include files in
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX/include/vtk and not in
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX/include?
(it's not that C++ programs use #include "vtk/vtkXXX.h",
just #include "vtkXXX.h")
                                                                                
Why is that cmake recompiles every single source file again when the
only thing I changed is an installation output path?
                                                                                
This is with cmake version 1.9.0 on linux.
