Hi,
I am trying to create a Debian binary package using CMake/CPack and it
is quite a nice tool. I understand that CMake/CPack try to rely on
external tools as little as possible but there are 2 issues that I
encountered while using the Debian generator
1. Dependency list - It would save a lot of effort if I can hook a
call to dpkg-shlibdeps during the package generation. So that
dependency list can be filled.
2. File owner - Since the generator compress the file by itself, so
the owner of the files is user who compile them. However, a Debian
binary package is normally created by using "fakeroot dpkg-deb
--build", so that the owner of the files is root/root
Do you have any suggestion about these issues?
