Same for me but I was trying to seek whether if it could be due to
ArchiveGenerator
or not. Obviously this is not the case.

So CPack is not the culprit.
Would try to open the cmake_install.cmake file corresponding
to the offending install(file ...)
You should find something like:
FILE(INSTALL <yourfile> DESTINATION <thedest>
FILE_PERMISSIONS <perms>)
You could try to craft a tryPermission.cmake file which mimics the command
and execute only that part using
cmake -P tryPermission.cmake
and check whether if the permission is preserved or not.

Ok thanks, this will be helpful.
It may not be necessary if the previous steps shows that
that FILE(INSTALL ....FILE_PERMISSIONS ... ) is not working,
in this case send us the script.
