[CMake] Bug fix requests for the *next* release of CMake...

[David Cole]

Could you elaborate on "full support for multiple components in cpack"
either in another thread, or in a feature request bug in the bug tracker?

With NSIS on Windows and PackageMaker on Mac, we already have what I would
consider "full support". Are you talking about extending that to additional
CPack generators or is there something missing even in those generators in
your opinion?

Thanks,
David
