Hello,

According to the CMake bashing website:

    http://www.remlab.net/op/cmake.shtml

CMake/Cpack does not support creating a source-only tarball distribution for a collection of software.

Is there some way to create a source-only tarball distribution with CMake/Cpack that can selectively pick out files from the original source tree like autotools does?

If it does not, then the some Trilinos developers could be quite annoyed by this.  I think there are better workarounds for the problem of not releasing some files but it will take some work no mater how you look at it.
