You're welcome

        About the package, indeed I'm trying to build a package of my entire

It seems that the macro is called twice while the value of ${PROJECT} didn't
changed (maybe twice in the same file?). If your project is open source, I
can take a look

No, this variable add path(s) to the standard path where cmake search
modules.

        I can say I'm not using a control file, but using the MACRO's

Ok, but my macro generate a control file name control_${PROJECT_NAME} in
${PROJECT_BINARY_DIR} folder.
Your problem is not to that the file already exist, but that there is two
rule trying to generate the same control file.
(there may be a problem, I should use DEB_TARGET_NAME instead of the project
name, I'll change it tomorrow. I hope it will solve your problem because I'm
soon on vacation for two weeks)


        Thanks a lot one more time and I'll try the CMAKE_MODULE_PATH tip.


You're welcome.
Please keep the mailing list in the CC :)
