# CPACK_ERROR_ON_ABSOLUTE_INSTALL_DESTINATION

Ask CPack to error out as soon as a file with absolute `INSTALL DESTINATION` is encountered.

The fatal error is emitted before the installation of the offending file takes place. Some CPack generators, like NSIS, enforce this internally. This variable triggers the definition of `CMAKE_ERROR_ON_ABSOLUTE_INSTALL_DESTINATION` when CPack runs.
