If you scroll down to Special Cases, you can see that it describes what you want. I may have an error on how it's evaluating the path, I'll look into that.

I see that the command you used produced this: -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr which is a special case and should do what you describe by changing ${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/${CMAKE_INSTALL_SYSCONFDIR} to ${CMAKE_INSTALL_FULL_SYSCONFDIR}/.

I don't follow. In my build -DCMAKE_INSTALL_SYSCONFDIR=/etc is set already

Quick, question though. Is there a case where you will want to install in a specific folder and then install the cfg somewhere else? (Apart from the special case described in the link.)

in my case DESTDIR is debian/<pkg_name> where all the files should be installed and later packaged.

I don't think we should configure or define CFG_DIR; it should be evaluated from the install prefix according to the rules described above.

Uhm... CFG_DIR is something we use in code and it should be configurable.
