Hi all,

I was wondering if this issue has been addressed so far. It is also 
related to this thread I think, which provides a possible implementation:

- http://www.cmake.org/pipermail/cmake/2012-May/050292.html
- 
http://cmake.3232098.n2.nabble.com/CPack-DEB-depends-bug-fix-td7560635.html

My use case is the following:
- I have several components, each of which creating one specific .deb
- I have dependencies across components (let's say "python extensions" 
depends on "core"). Right now if I am not mistaken, the 
CPACK_COMPONENT_<COMP>_DEPENDS is not handled with the debian packaging
- The dependencies are not the same for each of the components.


If the maintainer of the CPackDeb agrees, I can try to resolve this.

Best,
Raffi Enficiaud
