[CMake] Ctest not configuring properly due to DartConfiguration.tcl ?

[Johny]

I did what you said but now I have a different problem. I see this 
command being run and it has its output as G__CDB.cxx

"/home/johny/opt/cmake/bin/ctest" --launch --target-name CDB --build-dir 
/home/johny/opt/alice/AliRootInstall/STEER --output G__CDB.cxx

however this file is not created in that directory. The file is 
generated through a custom command. How do i fix this ?

Cheers,
Johny
