Summary

0014978: cpack excludes empty directories with archive generators (and others?)

Description

Empty directories are not included in cpack generated archives/installers.

Steps To Reproduce

project(archive)

set(CMAKE_INSTALL_BINARY_DIR bin)
set(CPACK_PACKAGE_CONTACT me)
set(CPACK_PACKAGING_INSTALL_PREFIX /opt/me)

install(CODE
  "
  file(MAKE_DIRECTORY \$ENV{DESTDIR}\${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/${CMAKE_INSTALL_BINARY_DIR}/userfiles)
  if(WIN32)
    execute_process(COMMAND icacls \$ENV{DESTDIR}\${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/${CMAKE_INSTALL_BINARY_DIR}/userfiles /grant:r \"Users:(OI)(CI)(F)\")
  else()
    execute_process(COMMAND chmod ugo+rw \$ENV{DESTDIR}\${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/${CMAKE_INSTALL_BINARY_DIR}/userfiles)
  endif()

)

include(CPack)

=========

Run cmake, then cpack -G TGZ or ZIP. Open the archive, and you will see that the directory is not included.

It is included for RPM, Deb and NSIS.
