-# GNUInstallDirs
-# --------------
-#
-# Define GNU standard installation directories
-#
-# Provides install directory variables as defined by the
-# `GNU Coding Standards`_.
-#
-# .. _`GNU Coding Standards`: https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Directory-Variables.html
-#
-# Result Variables
-# ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-#
-# Inclusion of this module defines the following variables:
-#
-# ``CMAKE_INSTALL_<dir>``
-#
-# Destination for files of a given type. This value may be passed to
-# the ``DESTINATION`` options of :command:`install` commands for the
-# corresponding file type.
-#
-# ``CMAKE_INSTALL_FULL_<dir>``
-#
-# The absolute path generated from the corresponding ``CMAKE_INSTALL_<dir>``
-# value. If the value is not already an absolute path, an absolute path
-# is constructed typically by prepending the value of the
-# :variable:`CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX` variable. However, there are some
-# `special cases`_ as documented below.
-#
-# where ``<dir>`` is one of:
-#
-# ``BINDIR``
-# user executables (``bin``)
-# ``SBINDIR``
-# system admin executables (``sbin``)
-# ``LIBEXECDIR``
-# program executables (``libexec``)
-# ``SYSCONFDIR``
-# read-only single-machine data (``etc``)
-# ``SHAREDSTATEDIR``
-# modifiable architecture-independent data (``com``)
-# ``LOCALSTATEDIR``
-# modifiable single-machine data (``var``)
-# ``RUNSTATEDIR``
-# run-time variable data (``LOCALSTATEDIR/run``)
-# ``LIBDIR``
-# object code libraries (``lib`` or ``lib64``
-# or ``lib/<multiarch-tuple>`` on Debian)
-# ``INCLUDEDIR``
-# C header files (``include``)
-# ``OLDINCLUDEDIR``
-# C header files for non-gcc (``/usr/include``)
-# ``DATAROOTDIR``
-# read-only architecture-independent data root (``share``)
-# ``DATADIR``
-# read-only architecture-independent data (``DATAROOTDIR``)
-# ``INFODIR``
-# info documentation (``DATAROOTDIR/info``)
-# ``LOCALEDIR``
-# locale-dependent data (``DATAROOTDIR/locale``)
-# ``MANDIR``
-# man documentation (``DATAROOTDIR/man``)
-# ``DOCDIR``
-# documentation root (``DATAROOTDIR/doc/PROJECT_NAME``)
-#
-# If the includer does not define a value the above-shown default will be
-# used and the value will appear in the cache for editing by the user.
-#
-# Special Cases
-# ^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-#
-# The following values of :variable:`CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX` are special:
-#
-# ``/``
-#
-# For ``<dir>`` other than the ``SYSCONFDIR``, ``LOCALSTATEDIR`` and
-# ``RUNSTATEDIR``, the value of ``CMAKE_INSTALL_<dir>`` is prefixed
-# with ``usr/`` if it is not user-specified as an absolute path.
-# For example, the ``INCLUDEDIR`` value ``include`` becomes ``usr/include``.
-# This is required by the `GNU Coding Standards`_, which state:
-#
-# When building the complete GNU system, the prefix will be empty
-# and ``/usr`` will be a symbolic link to ``/``.
-#
-# ``/usr``
-#
-# For ``<dir>`` equal to ``SYSCONFDIR``, ``LOCALSTATEDIR`` or
-# ``RUNSTATEDIR``, the ``CMAKE_INSTALL_FULL_<dir>`` is computed by
-# prepending just ``/`` to the value of ``CMAKE_INSTALL_<dir>``
-# if it is not user-specified as an absolute path.
-# For example, the ``SYSCONFDIR`` value ``etc`` becomes ``/etc``.
-# This is required by the `GNU Coding Standards`_.
-#
-# ``/opt/...``
-#
-# For ``<dir>`` equal to ``SYSCONFDIR``, ``LOCALSTATEDIR`` or
-# ``RUNSTATEDIR``, the ``CMAKE_INSTALL_FULL_<dir>`` is computed by
-# *appending* the prefix to the value of ``CMAKE_INSTALL_<dir>``
-# if it is not user-specified as an absolute path.
-# For example, the ``SYSCONFDIR`` value ``etc`` becomes ``/etc/opt/...``.
-# This is defined by the `Filesystem Hierarchy Standard`_.
-#
-# .. _`Filesystem Hierarchy Standard`: https://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/FHS_3.0/fhs/index.html

-#
-# .. command:: GNUInstallDirs_get_absolute_install_dir
-#
-# ::

-# within the variable ``var``. This is to allow the computation of an
-# absolute path, accounting for all the special cases documented
-# above. While this macro is used to compute the various
