[CMake] Generating multiple debian packages

[Bruce Cartland]

I've been through this and experimented with samples kindly provided by 
another user. Nothing works for debian packaging. What I think will work 
is a "workaround" from another user in 2008 
_http://www.cmake.org/pipermail/cmake/2008-April/020967.html_, where I 
generate my own CPackConfig-runtime.cmake and CPackConfig-dev.cmake files.

thanks for the pointers
