-DVARIABLE:TYPE=VALUE is equivalent to set(VARIABLE VALUE CACHE TYPE 
...). The equivalent to SET( VARIABLE VALUE ) is -DVARIABLE=VALUE

what about

IF(PACKING_FOR_DEBIAN)
   SET_TARGET_PROPERTIES( mytarget PROPERTIES DEBUG_POSTFIX "d")
ENDIF()

cmake -DPACKING_FOR_DEBIAN=1

PACKING_FOR_DEBIAN is just a suggestion, look at CPackDeb and see if you 
can find a variable that is already defined.
