Tyler is right.
You have to set CPACK_GENERATOR to the list of CPack generator you want.
If you don't set CPACK_GENERATOR (prior to include(CPack)) then CPack
have some default list builtin depending on the platform.

On "APPLE", you get:

PackageMaker
STGZ
TGZ

ZIP may be on globally and switch OFF in favor of NSIS on Windows.

So I bet you did not set CPACK_GENERATOR, do you?
