 Description   

Library files really ought to go to lib64. I searched all over for a standard method of deciding this. I'm submitting this patch which is a little bit of a hack but does the job till someone does it better.

We use the same path convention as we have in the server package.
To determine path of libraries please use the mariadb_config program.

Also mysql-connector-c uses lib, not lib64.

mysql however has code very similar to this and puts the client libraries in lib64

Todd,

I think your mixing the native cmake build system with distribution specific rpms.
When running cmake and make install libraries and include files will be always installed in CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX directory.

By default it's /usr/local.
