Which is bug report, which should be fixed in 2.8.3 :-]

Would you be able to give latest CMake 2.8.3/CPack rc a try?

I think it should fix your problems (while maintaining the support for
space in filename ... and many more things)

If not please file a bug report may be including a small example project which
exhibits the issue.

> P.S. : I used rpmbuild from RPM 4.8.1

Ok should work with 2.8.3.

If you have trouble with CPackRPM you can run it with debug output on like this:

cpack -D CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_DEBUG=1 -G RPM

and you will have trace of what CPackRPM is doing (including the
version of rpmbuild used).
