Which version of CMake have you tried?
Version 3.4.0 had some changes regarding how DEB packages are packaged
(libarchive instead of system tar) so try to see if that version works
for you.

Try to create a simple package first and see if the error still occurs
and then go from there.
Something like:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.4 FATAL_ERROR)

set(CPACK_PACKAGE_CONTACT "someone")
install(FILES CMakeLists.txt DESTINATION foo COMPONENT test)
set(CPACK_PACKAGE_NAME "minimal")

set(CPACK_GENERATOR "DEB")
include(CPack)

Domen
