Ok thanks.
Do not hesitate to give us more feedback when you find the time to do
more extensive tests.
Give your feedback either on the list and/or on the bug tracker:

I think this is another issue.
You may already be able to do what you want if you set CPACK_PACKAGE_DIRECTORY

e.g
try cpack -D CPACK_PACKAGE_DIRECTORY=/tmp -G ZIP

if it is not working for you then open a feature request which explain
precisely your need.
