Using Google I found that in 'source' you should indicate the path
containing the CMakeLists.txt (the root of CGAL)
and in 'build' the path where the lib will be compiled. It can be
either the root of CGAL if you want to do an in-source build or whatever
directory you want (out-source build). The second approach is better if
you want ot use several version of the lib.
