System Information
Operating system: Alpine Linux

Blender Version
Broken: 4.0.0
Worked: 3.6.5

Short description of error
When trying to build and install blender using unconventional directories, it gives a cmake error:

CMake Error at build-full/source/creator/cmake_install.cmake:2103 (file):
  file INSTALL cannot find
  "/builds/lmarz/aports/community/blender/src/blender-4.0.0/build-full/source/creator/blender.1":
  No such file or directory.
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  build-full/cmake_install.cmake:51 (include)

My guess is that it couldn't find the blender executable to generate the man page and it probably quietly failed until the step where the file is copied to the target directory. Some cmake variables were changed between version 3.6 and 4.0.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Here is the cmake command:

cmake -B build-full \
    -C build_files/cmake/config/blender_full.cmake \
    -G Ninja -Wno-dev \
    -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr \
    -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
    -DWITH_PYTHON_INSTALL=OFF \
    -DWITH_INSTALL_PORTABLE=OFF \
    -DWITH_LIBS_PRECOMPILED=OFF \
    -DWITH_SYSTEM_EIGEN3=ON \
    -DWITH_SYSTEM_GLOG=ON \
    -DWITH_SYSTEM_LZO=ON \
    -DLLVM_VERSION=15 \
    -DPYTHON_VERSION=3.12

cmake --build build-full
DESTDIR="$pkgdir" cmake --install build-full

Here is the full log: man_page_fail.log
Warning: The log is quite verbose as it builds three different versions of blender

I believe this should be re-opened and linked to #115127. This is not a user error but an actual regression in Blender.
