Path of catkin workspace appears in install space

edit

UPDATE 201803100806 I can provide a reproduce sample.

Workspace path is mixed in install space. This makes me worry that I might have done something wrong, but I'm not quite sure.

• Q1. Is this supposed to be so?
• Q2. If the built package distributed to another computer that doesn't have the same path, would it still work?

Issue

In install space I see many mentions of the absolute path of catkin workspace as some of them citead below. I do NOT though see the catkin ws path in setup.*sh, and also when I ran source /opt/ros/indigo/setup.bash I do not see the catkin ws path in any environment variables.

Commands to reproduce:

$ docker pull ros:indigo-ros-core-trusty
$ docker images
