Summary:                    cpack gives archive_read_disk_entry_from_file: Can't
lstat <file>
Description: 
CPack archive generator gives an error when using these two settings together.

set(CPACK_ARCHIVE_COMPONENT_INSTALL 1)
set(CPACK_PACKAGING_INSTALL_PREFIX "/opt/My-1.0")

The result is that I cannot create a .tar.gz package.


Steps to Reproduce: 
Use this CMakeLists.txt file:


file(WRITE file.txt.in "hi")
configure_file(file.txt.in ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/file-runtime.txt)
configure_file(file.txt.in ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/file-devel.txt)

install(FILES ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/file-runtime.txt
        DESTINATION bin COMPONENT Runtime)
install(FILES ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/file-devel.txt
        DESTINATION lib COMPONENT Development)

set(CPACK_COMPONENTS_ALL Development)
set(CPACK_ARCHIVE_COMPONENT_INSTALL 1)
set(CPACK_PACKAGING_INSTALL_PREFIX "/opt/My-1.0")
include(CPack)


Additional Information: 
With -V, cpack gives:

CPack: Create package
CPack Verbose: Package files to:
_CPack_Packages/Linux/TGZ/Project-0.1.1-Linux.tar.gz
CPack Verbose: Component <Development> does not belong to any group, package it
separately.
CPack Verbose:    - packaging component: Development
CPack Error: ERROR while packaging files: archive_read_disk_entry_from_file:
Can't lstat lib/file-devel.txt


It also doesn't make sense that I get the message "Component <Development> does
not belong to any group, package it separately", when I'm already packaging it
separatly by setting CPACK_COMPONENTS_ALL.
