Hi,
I'm new to this list and just recently started to use CMake and CPack.
So far I'm very pleased but there's one thing that I think could use
some improvement;
As far as I van see (from Wiki) the RPM generating backend of CPack uses
CPACK_PACKAGE_DESCRIPTION_FILE if CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_DESCRIPTION is not
provided, but the Debian backend does not use
PACK_PACKAGE_DESCRIPTION_FILE in any way although adding it is just a
three line patch:
file(STRINGS description descriptionFile)
STRING(REGEX REPLACE ";" " " descriptionFile "${descriptionFile}")
SET(CPACK_PACKAGE_DESCRIPTION_SUMMARY ${descriptionFile})
It would be nice if this is the default behavior for all backends.
Regards,
Erik
