Hi Eric,<br><br>> You should use:<br>> execute_process(<br>> COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -E create_symlink file link<br>> WORKING_DIRECTORY $ENV{DESTDIR}${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/share/TestLink<br>> )<br><br>Thanks, it works fine.<br>

</div>In fact it does but you did not see what happened.<br>
Your install script:<br>
<br>
execute_process(<br>
COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -E create_symlink file link<br>
WORKING_DIRECTORY ${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/share/TestLink<br>
)<br>
<br>
does not support DESTDIR, which is used by CPack in order to install locally<br>
(inside build/_CPack_Packages ... )<br>
before packaging.<br>
<br>
You should use:<br>
execute_process(<br>
COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -E create_symlink file link<br>
WORKING_DIRECTORY $ENV{DESTDIR}${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/share/TestLink<br>
)<br>
<br>
and this should work in both cases (make install and CPack run).<br>
<div class="im"><br>
> Is there a better way to create links between files ?<br>
<br>
</div>From a "pure" RPM perspective you should write an RPM post install script<br>
and<br>
set(CPACK_RPM_POST_INSTALL_SCRIPT_FILE "your-script.sh")<br>
now I understand you want to have a single script for all package format<br>
so the INSTALL(SCRIPT ...) should work for all of them as soon as<br>
symlinks are supported (which may not be the case on Windows).<br>
