Hi Eric,<br><br> I already had this buildroot problem and fixed it, I copied the file locally and can create packages (rpm, deb) on my local computer without any problems.<br><br> The problem I have now is on another computer, accessed through SSH, and I already replaced the CPackRPM.cmake file. Where could the "File must begin with "/": come from? I tried to grep this error string in the cmake folder and didn't find it?<br><br>Thanks for your help,<br>Pascale<br><br>> Date: Thu, 25 Jun 2009 16:09:25 +0200<br>> Subject: Re: [CMake] CPack, error generating rpm file, error "File must begin with "/": "<br>> From: eric.noulard@gmail.com<br>> To: chose29@hotmail.com<br>> CC: cmake@cmake.org<br>> <br>> 2009/6/25 Pascale B <chose29@hotmail.com>:<br>> > Hi All,<br>> ><br>> > I am using CMake, CPack to generate packages.
