Did you set those before include(CPack) ?

Looks good Strange enough...
 Would you be able to give us a standalone strip down example project of
this
and may be tell us which version of CPack/CMake you are using on which
platform.


What happen if you do something like;

cpack -G DEB -D CPACK_PACKAGING_INSTALL_PREFIX=/tmp

?
