Does that mean it would just be overriding GNUInstallDirs.cmake by explicitly setting the libdir? I don't have a problem with that in principle, but it is going to be difficult to know if it will cause any unintended problems with other packages or not.

After giving it some thought, I think it would really help us if Bloom
could just put
the ""right values"" at configure time:

I.e.
dh_autoconfigure -- -DCMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR=/opt/ros/.../lib

Would it be acceptable to make this change in Bloom?

It would avoid us maintaining patches for every package using
GNUInstallDirs.cmake.
