[cmake-developers] [CPackDeb][libarchive] removing use of fakeroot and supporting UID/GID/UNAME etc in libarchive

[Raffi Enficiaud]

Hi Brad and Domen and others,

I just realized that the permissions for the extra control files should 
be set in a different way than for the md5sum checksum file.

Please find attached the patch correcting this and the corresponding 
test that fires the problem.

Best,
Raffi


PS.: I want to push it directly to stage/cpack-deb-fakeroot-removal but 
I have a permission issue.
