Hm.. is that set by SET(CPACK_GENERATOR "TBZ2") or something else?

If I set the second, I get an error when running make package_source like:

Run CPack packaging tool for source...
/dir/to/cpack --config /source/location//CPackSourceConfig.cmake
CPack Error: Cannot initialize CPack generator:

Reading the CPackSourceConfig.cmake file shows CPACK_GENERATOR to then be "".
Editing the CPackSourceConfig.cmake file and setting CPACK_GENERATOR to TBZ2 
manually then gives me a source package of filename.tar.bz2. Something does 
go wrong there though. I ended up with a 248mb bz2.

Looking at the CPack.cmake file, the "#Pick a generator" section looks like it 
needs an update. Maybe thats entirely intentional given you wanted to add the 
bzip2 library support..

Thanks
Craig
