OK.

Looks good.

strange.

Does it work with with other CPack generator like, DEB, ZIP, TGZ ?

I'm running out of time for looking into it now.
I'll have a look tonight.

However would try 2 things:

1) Run CPack RPM in debug mode using

    cd /to/build/dir
    cpack -D CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_DEBUG=1 -G RPM

    Then send me the output.

2) Add SET(CPACK_SET_DESTDIR ON)
     to your CMakeLists.txt before INCLUDE(CPack)
     the option is necessary if you use "absolute install path"
     which is not your case but I wonder if it could change something.

3) What is your Linux distro (with version)
     it has been reported RPM trouble with recent Fedora distrib'.
     Give me the rpm commands version too:
     rpm --version
     rpmbuild --version

Yes I am no problem :-)
