Hi!

I'm trying to use upx to compress the final executable but I have a
few problems.
What I did was adding a custom command:

  add_executable(gal WIN32 ${sources})
  get_property(galpath TARGET gal PROPERTY LOCATION)
  add_custom_command(
    TARGET gal POST_BUILD
    COMMAND upx ${galpath})

The problem happens when I run make install or make package that
relinks the executable. I can disable relinking by changing
CMAKE_SKIP_RPATH but i'm not sure if this is the best option.

I could change CMAKE_STRIP to point to upx or is there a better
solution (install(SCRIPT))?
