If you look in the build settings you see that /tmp/SRMapKit.dst is 
the value of the "installation build product"=DSTROOT. If you read the 
xcode docs you can see that the installation directory is relative to 
DSTROOT. I'm trying to give hints so you can solve problems yourself.

Only one setting for each key is used. The different places where you 
can set it are explained in the docs. I advice you to read those 
before asking a question here.

First follow the hints the actual results give you and read the docs. 
Then you can ask questions to others.
