    Description

      Installing QtWebEngine from the single tarball with

      cmake -B build -S qtwebengine-everywhere-src-6.2.0
cmake --build build
DESTDIR="foo" cmake --install build

      ignores DESTDIR and tries to install to the root filesystem

      Install the project...

-- Install configuration: "Release"

CMake Error at core/api/cmake_install.cmake:46 (file):

  file cannot create directory: /usr/include/qt6/QtWebEngineCore.  Maybe need

  administrative privileges.

Call Stack (most recent call first):

  core/cmake_install.cmake:47 (include)

  cmake_install.cmake:47 (include)

      It only affects WebEngine, all other modules install to the correct dir with the same commands.
