[CMake] CPack Directory entries in zip files

[Jakub Zakrzewski]

Hi.
That's not that issue but may be related.
What I mean is the internal structure of zip file. I need to have
these directories explicite listed in the internal file list of zip
file. Now they are only implicity created. For example for file name
'my/file.txt' I should have an entry for 'my' and 'my/file.txt' but
now I only have 'my/file.txt'.

Anyway, tomorrow I will start looking into CPack code to get it
solved. It also may be related to libarchive. But I think this is a
topic for dev mailing list.
