Summary0014318: ExternalProject module needs small patch to allow unpacking of *.tar.xz files
DescriptionThe CMake logic in ExternalProject.cmake does tests for filename patterns which currently do not contain the pattern for *.tar.xz. The attached patch fixes this issue so that ExternalProject_Add correctly unpacks *.tar.xz files on Linux.
Steps To ReproduceUse ExternalProject_Add to attempt to unpack a *.tar.xz tarball on Linux.
Additional InformationNote there is a related fix (consisting of importing the latest libarchive source code into CMake) in the works that should allow "cmake -E tar xfz *.tar.xz" to work properly on MSYS. When that fix is combined with the present one the result will be that ExternalProject_Add correctly unpacks *.tar.xz files on MSYS (as well as Linux).
TagsNo tags attached.
