Summary0007282: CPack components need to be in global scope
DescriptionCurrently the CPack component features depend on some variables such as:

CPACK_COMPONENTS_ALL
CPACK_COMPONENT_${CNAME}_GROUP
...

These variables are typically easier to set at the point where you are building the component, which might be nested in some hierarchy. For example, if you have the following hierarchy with a CMakeLists.txt at each level, then you need to export the variables up at each level.

/
/libs => set(CPACK_COMPONENTS_ALL ${CPACK_COMPONENTS_ALL} PARENT_SCOPE
/libs/any => set(CPACK_COMPONENTS_ALL ${CPACK_COMPONENTS_ALL} any PARENT_SCOPE)

These variables should be collected without the need to be set globally. Maybe a new command 'add_cpack_component' like the 'add_test' would be useful or having a CPackComponents.cmake file to collect components, such as tests are collected in CTestTestfile.cmake.

Fixed in CMake 2.6.1; use the macros cpack_add_component, cpack_add_component_group, etc., provided by the CPack modular.
