I do something like this in my CPack file:

set(DREAM3D_VERSION_SHORT "${DREAM3DLib_VER_MAJOR}.${DREAM3DLib_VER_MINOR}")

set(CPACK_PACKAGE_FILE_NAME 
"DREAM3D-${DREAM3D_VERSION_SHORT}-${CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME}")


Where the DREAM3D_Lib_VER_* variables are generated with a call to my SCM (git 
in my case)
