For my case, I need to install the files to a staging area before packaging them up for installation in the target environment. I've tried "b2 --stagedir <dir> stage" but the generated CMake files still include the stagedir path in them, instead of the install prefix specified during bootstrap, which triggers errors in the packaging system. I'm also not sure if it's then possible to just install the headers to the same staging location.

Is there a way to install to a staging location while the CMake files have the paths to the final install location? CMake uses CMAKE_STAGING_PREFIX for this but I can't find an equivalent for b2. I guess it must be required for cross-compiling though, if you want to support CMake on the target?
