[CMake] Problems with CPack 2.8.8

Hello,

i've upgraded my cmake installation from 2.8.7 to 2.8.8. After the upgrade the cpack has an unwanted behavior.

When i run cpack from the build directory (in cpack 2.8.7) then cpack iterates over all configured CPACK_GENERATORs and creates the installer/archives.
But with cpack 2.8.8 I get only the options from cpack.
Is this a bug or did I need to configure something else in 2.8.8?

cpack version 2.8.8
Usage

  cpack -G <generator> [options]
