Comment (by michaelld@…):
The phonon I'm building is current to the MP trunk latest revision (140944
right now). I have only rev-bumped it to get the qt4-mac changes (local to
my test install). There's nothing else special about it or the PortGroups
it's using.
Let me repeat: cmake looks in both ${prefix}/lib/cmake and
${prefix}/share/cmake for files. It does this out of the box, no changes
needed by us, and has done so for a long time. Some projects install their
cmake files into the former by default, while others choose the latter by
default. Some projects easily allow this directory to be selected, while
others don't. There is no 'best practices' to the best of my knowledge for
which to install into. I do not know why MP has decided to install into
the latter; but, we do, and I try my best to honor that setting. From
cmake's perspective, it really does not matter. What does matter is when
projects assume one setting and ignore the other. That's not good
programming & then we have to go in and fix it. Hopefully notify upstream
& they fix it too.
I will fix up polkit-qt sometime today, when doing the commits for qt4-mac
& qt4-1.0.
