Hi Gaëtan,
Thanks for pointing out the prior bug about porting cableswig to Debian. As
I've discovered previously, Debian is quick to adopt and resolve porting
issues, more so than most other open-source porting systems; so it's no
surprise someone on Debian has picked up this issue already. It looks like
the diff file attached to that bug report could be used to patch the cvs
checkout.
Before I leap off that cliff, it would be best to have an authoritative
perspective on that patch and whether it is the "right" or preferred
solution to this installation problem for a stand-alone cableswig port.
Here is the diff from that bug report:

The CMakeLists.txt file from the CVS (date 20090514) is attached. This is
NOT the same file used to generate the diff above, it is the "current" cvs
file that I'm using at the moment for the MacPorts port (we need some kind
of date tag to ensure the port is identical and working for a particular
checkout). Note these lines in this CMakeLists.txt:
##############BEGIN snips from cableswig-cvs-20090514/SWIG/CMakeLists.txt

##############END cableswig-20090514/SWIG/CMakeLists.txt
So, the diff in the bug report will not apply directly to this cvs version
of the CMakeLists.txt file. Now, there are numerous variables that appear
to define something related to the SWIG library location. A simple solution
is to identify THE variable that will be most effective in setting the
SWIGLib search path for the cswig binary so that it will look for the
library below the INSTALL_PREFIX/lib path (i.e.:
INSTALL_PREFIX/lib/CableSwig/SWIGLib). If that variable can be set using a
-D option to cmake, the problem could be resolved easily. Without an
intimate knowledge of cableswig, I cannot determine how to resolve the
problem.
Take care,
Darren
