[CMake] CPack system directory issues (PackageManager, RPM)

[Martin Blom]

Hi,

I'm using CMake/CPack to package a system daemon, which is installing 
files to different system directories like /etc, /usr/bin, 
/usr/share/doc etc.

The problem I'm having is that I need to exclude these directories from 
the package list. Not all, though -- I still want 
/usr/share/doc/<project> to be part of the package, so it gets erased 
when the package is removed.

For RPMs, I could solve it by using my own .spec template, but I can't 
figure out how to make a proper PackageManager package.

When installing the package, it messes up several system directores 
(like replacing the /etc -> /private/etc symlink with a basically empty 
directory, owned by my user ID!)

I tried setting CPACK_IGNORE_FILES, but that didn't seem to help. Did I 
do something wrong?

(Using CMake/CPack 2.6.0.)
