Yes there is:CPACK_COMPONENT_INCLUDE_TOPLEVEL_DIRECTORY

cpack --help-variable CPACK_COMPONENT_INCLUDE_TOPLEVEL_DIRECTORY


I think that the default behavior for componentized packaging is not the same
for "historical / backward compatibility" reason.

so try
cpack -G TGZ -D CPACK_COMPONENT_INCLUDE_TOPLEVEL_DIRECTORY=1
