Interesting.

This is also a perfect example of how *not* to write git commit nor
changelog messages: everybody who can read those few lines of diff will
know what got removed and that it wasn't "standard" (or else it would
not have been defined manually); but the "why" is not adressed, nor is
it obvious.

In fact, even more got removed:

-         -DINCLUDE_INSTALL_DIR:PATH=%{_includedir} \\\
-         -DLIB_INSTALL_DIR:PATH=%{_libdir} \\\
-         -DSYSCONF_INSTALL_DIR:PATH=%{_sysconfdir} \\\
-         -DSHARE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=%{_datadir} \\\

How are we supposed to ensure Fedora standard install paths with cmake
in spec? Is everyone supposed to set them? Are other (buildroot?)
packages setting them in a way which cmake picks up?
