Summary0012061: CPackDeb fails if using components and CONTROL_EXTRA
DescriptionCPackDeb fails if several deb files are created from components while using CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_CONTROL_EXTRA.

CPack Error: Problem running tar command: "/usr/bin/cmake" -E tar cfz control.tar.gz ./control ./md5sums ./postinst ./postrm
Please check [...]build/_CPack_Packages/Linux/DEB/Deb.log for errors

Deb.log contains these messages:

CMake Error: archive_read_disk_entry_from_file: (Empty error message)
CMake Error: Problem creating tar: control.tar.gz
Steps To Reproduce# untar componentExampleStartWithControlExtra.tar.bz2
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ../Source
make
cpack

If the CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_CONTROL_EXTRA line is commented out cpack runs like a charm. If using CONTROL_EXTRA it fails.

 It seems that the postinst and postrm files are in the wrong directory if packaging components:

 In my eyes another question arises: Shouldn't it be possible to use a postinst/postrm file for a single/for each deb file (e.g. for running depmod -a after installing the libraries)? Up to now it's only possible to specifiy CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_CONTROL_EXTRA globally. We could use something like PACK_COMPONENT_FOO_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_CONTROL_EXTRA but we're still stuck with the problem that we can only have one file named "postinst" in the source directory.

 Hi Martin,

I'll try the patch.
Concerning the per-component EXTRA control yes that's right.
The same issue arose on the ML concerning RPM
(no bug but no way to specify per-component)

Now for the unique name issue, may it's because CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_CONTROL_EXTRA
interface has not the appropriate interface.

We should be able to have postrm name postrm-whatever in the source
and get copied to postrm by CPackDeb.

e.g. CPackRPM defines:
CPACK_RPM_POST_INSTALL_SCRIPT_FILE
which contains the name of the file to be used in post-install step.

we could make CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_CONTROL_EXTRA a list of
"pair filename" instead of a list of filename.

I think this issue "per-component extra control" should be handled
in a separate feature request. I'll file one for Deb and on for RPM.
