As the author of those patches announced the packages can even be
built for Launchpad:
https://www.mail-archive.com/cmake-developers%40cmake.org/msg14723.html

The packages can be created to pass lint tests but there are no
convenience functions that would create a license file and such so
only setting package components in install commands, adding deb
package generator and create package won't produce a package that
would pass lintian tests.
So yes it can be done but for now it's not as straight forward as it could be.

Domen
