I am going to want this on MacOS. However, on this page:
http://www.itk.org/Wiki/CMake:Component_Install_With_CPack
A remark was added on 18 June, which reads:
Also, as of the time of this writing, the extensions to CPack
required to build component-based installers are only available
via CMake CVS.
My version of CMake is 2.8.2, which I installed via an installer. Does this mean
that in order to build a component-based (not monolithic) installer with
PackageMaker, that I need to checkout CMake and built from source?
...and if so, do I need to apply patches from:

Thanks,
