I'll try adding a check for `rpmbuild` to my CMakeLists before enabling RPM packages. This seems quite a nice solution as users should always get TGZ and DEB and RPM if possible. From what I gather producing DEBs has no associated dependencies. This way they can choose which one they want to use and distribute others if they want. Doing the checks in my CMakeLists file should also reduce the chance of a package failing to build when the user runs `make package`. _______________________________________________ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
