Summary0014391: CPack crashes when creating a debian package
DescriptionWhen I run CPack to create a debian package, I get the following error:
CPack Error: Problem running tar command: /usr/bin/fakeroot "/usr/bin/cmake" -E tar cfz data.tar.gz ./usr
Please check /bestanden/tobe/Dropbox/Projects/netlogin/build/_CPack_Packages/Linux/DEB/Deb.log for errors
CPack Error: Problem compressing the directory

The file _CPack_Packages/Linux/DEB/Deb.log contains the following:
# Run command: /usr/bin/fakeroot "/usr/bin/cmake" -E tar cfz data.tar.gz ./usr
# Working directory: /bestanden/tobe/Dropbox/Projects/netlogin/build/_CPack_Packages/Linux/DEB/netlogin-0.1.1-Linux
# Output:
getopt: ongeldige optie -- 'E'
fakeroot, create a fake root environment.
   usage: fakeroot [-l|--lib fakerootlib] [-f|--faked fakedbin]
                   [-i file] [-s file] [-u|--unknown-is-real]
           [-b|--fd-base fd] [-h|--help] [-v|--version]
                   [--] [command]

It seems fakeroot gets confused by the -E option. The probem is solved by adding '--' before the fakeroot command in the file Source/CPack/cmCPackDebGenerator.cxx (I've added a diff between the origal and my changed file .
Steps To Reproduce-Create a project which can create a debian package
-run 'cmake .'
-run 'make'
-run 'make package'

Having this issue to. Any fix for this apart from rebuilding cmake?

Flaw not in CMake but in the translation of getopt used by fakeroot.

The option handling in fakeroot breaks with some locales.
