I have a source file foo.png and I want to copy it (on installation) to=20
location bar/blurfl.png and _rename_ it in the process (to blurfl.png, as y=
ou=20
can see). I don't see how this can be done with :copy, nor in the install=20
targets.=20

You may ask: why not just rename to blurfl in the source and be done with i=
t?=20
Well, there's various historic reasons,and compatibility with another build=
=20
system is one of them - for KDE icons, in particular, we use=20
theme-size-type-iconname, which gets installed to=20
theme/sizexsize/type/iconname . This is a mess, I know, but that's how it i=
s.=20
I have a python function in the KDE module to map one to the other (did I=20
mention that type needs to be munged to work? as well as theme?), but no wa=
y=20
to use this mapping in the regular install targets.

The attached patch adds an {installfile} attribute analogous to the=20
{installdir} attribute, which overrides the basename of the file to install=
=2E=20
Using {installdir} and {installfile} you can install a file to any location=
=20
you need.

Does this sound reasonable? If so, I'll write docs for it too.
