You really should be using Debian utilities.

I talked to several Debian developers about CMake's DEB support and they said 
it was "worse than useless" because it doesn't follow the Debian packaging 
guide at all.

I'd advise that you therefore use the Debian development tools when creating 
packages rather than writing scripts yourself.

I hope to work on this at some stage but can't justify doing it at work yet.
