  44          - run cmake_install.cmake
  45              - set CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX to the temp directory

  50 Recommendations:
  51
  52 rename cmCPackGenerators  to cmCPackGeneratorFactory
  53
  54 rename cmCPackGenericGenerator  -->  cmCPackGenerator
  55
  56 rename cmCPackGenericGenerator::ProcessGenerator  -> cmCPackGenerator::DoPackage
  57
  58
  59 break up cmCPackGenerator::InstallProject so it calls the following:
  60
  61 // run user provided install commands
  62   cmCPackGenerator::RunInstallCommands();
  63 // copy entire directories that need no processing like source trees
  64   cmCPackGenerator::CopyPreInstalledDirectories();
  65 // run the cmake install scripts if provided
  66   cmCPackGenerator::RunCMakeInstallScripts()
