As others have said already, /usr/local/qml/ looks wrong to me.

But beside that, in the patch you set it to "/qml", which means it's an 
absolute path, so it should end up in /qml, not in 
${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/qml.

So, any path not starting with a backslash is interpreted as relative to 
${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}.
