Detailed Description

The installpaths module contains properties indicating directories where files should be installed to in a manner allowing distributors to make necessary adjustments.

Example usage:

qbs modules.installPaths.libexec:lib64/libexec

Note: On Debian-like Linux distributions, this module also provides some convenience auto-detection mechanism using the dpkg-architecture tool: If installPaths::autotedect is true, Qbs will query the library paths from the system.
