Re: [ros-release] Indigo and multiarch support

That seems reasonable, I think that variable is usually relative (from a
brief search on the internet), so it should simply be
`-DCMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR=lib`.
The `CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX` will automatically be put before it.

This rule modification should _only_ be used for the `rosdebian` bloom
generator and not the plain `debian` generator.
