-Subject: [PATCH] correct path for CONFIGURE_FILE in CMakeLists.txt
-
-If CMAKE_MODULE_PATH is empty before appending
-'${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/cmake' to it (CMakeLists.txt:27),
-CONFIGURE_FILE (CMakeLists.txt:182) works as intended.
-However, when CMAKE_MODULE_PATH is not empty, e.g., because of
-further tool-chain settings, CONFIGURE_FILE fails with:
-
-CMake Error: File <SOME-OTHER-PATH>;<POCO-SRC-PATH>/cmake/cmake_uninstall.cmake.in does not exist.
-| CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:182 (CONFIGURE_FILE):
-|   configure_file Problem configuring file
-
-This commit addresses this problem by only using
-'${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/cmake' in CONFIGURE_FILE.
-The problem was discovered in the meta-ros layer project
-(http://github.com/bmwcarit/meta-ros) when creating a libpoco
-bitbake recipe, which uses poco's cmake installation scripts.
