Summary:                    Debian package trying to overwrite
/usr/share/aclocal/cmake.m4
Description: 
I am unable to generate a .deb file that will install on Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS.

Both "cpack -G deb" and setting "CPACK_BINARY_DEB" to "ON" result in a .deb file
with the following error from apt:

$ sudo dpkg -i cmake-3.3.20150814-g17ecf-Linux-armv7l.deb 
(Reading database ... 220164 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to unpack cmake-3.3.20150814-g17ecf-Linux-armv7l.deb ...
Unpacking cmake (3.3.20150814-g17ecf) over (2.8.12.2-0ubuntu3) ...
dpkg: error processing archive cmake-3.3.20150814-g17ecf-Linux-armv7l.deb
(--install):
 trying to overwrite '/usr/share/aclocal/cmake.m4', which is also in package
cmake-data 2.8.12.2-0ubuntu3

I am building from nightly commit from Friday:
17ecfd8210b4db74753c4565b10a2b75dfa4c480


Steps to Reproduce: 
Check out source, configure, build, run "cpack -G deb" in the build tree, try to
install resulting .deb with "dpkg -i"
