Avogadro is an advanced molecular editor designed for cross-platform use in computational chemistry, molecular modeling, bioinformatics, materials science, and related areas. It offers flexible rendering and a powerful plugin architecture.
The build/install documentation distributed in file INSTALL instructs to use CMAKE variable LIB_INSTALL_DIR to set a non-default library installation directory. That doesn't work at all: the top-level CMakeLists.txt file sets its own value for that variable, at least on UNIX targets, clobbering any user setting.
It appears that I can get what I want using the LIB_SUFFIX variable, but I don't see a solution for anyone with more complex needs for the library installation location.
