[Qgis-developer] Cannot install libqgis_customwidgets.so

[Etienne Tourigny]

It should probably be disabled by default when CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX is set
(to avoid this error), but it would make sense to make it default if
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX
is not set (which requires to install as root). Don't know if it's easy to
do that in cmake though.

cheers
Etienne
