Which CPACK_xxx variables did you use?
CPACK_RPM_SPEC_MORE_DEFINE ?
CPACK_RPM_USER_FILELIST ?

You cannot add flags meant to be used at CPack time in your CMakeLists.txt
because CMakeLists.txt is read when *cmake* runs not when *cpack* runs.
See:
https://github.com/dev-cafe/cmake-cookbook/tree/master/figures/cmake-times
for the description of various times

However you can use
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.12/module/CPack.html#variable:CPACK_PROJECT_CONFIG_FILE
for that purpose.
If you specify (in your CMakeLists.txt) the name of a file as
set(CPACK_PROJECT_CONFIG_FILE ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY}/mycpack_config.cmake)
then the 'mycpack_config.cmake' will be processed by CPack when it runs.
You can find an example usage here:
http://git.savannah.nongnu.org/cgit/certi.git/tree/CMakeLists.txt#n621
in this case the CERTICPackOptions.cmake.in  (in the source tree) is first
configure to CERTICPackOptions.cmake (in the build tree)
then
SET(CPACK_PROJECT_CONFIG_FILE "${CERTI_BINARY_DIR}/CERTICPackOptions.cmake")

indicate that CPack should use it at "CPack-time".

The process describing how "CPACK_PROJECT_CONFIG_FILE" is used is described
at the beginning of : https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.12/module/CPack.html

If the regex processing of the %files content were more robust, I wouldn't

Then may be you can file a patch for making those more robust?

1) Use   CPACK_RPM_USER_BINARY_SPECFILE and CPACK_PROJECT_CONFIG_FILE.
2) propose a patch for
