Kornel, On a clean system, after the *.deb is built, when attemtping to install using the command
"sudo dpkg -i some_package_name.deb" the package fails to install because it's unable to create the necessary directories. I've assumed this is a permissions problem. I assume the binary package (*.deb) isn't utilizing sudo permissions to create those directories as it normally would. I'm in the process of re-building and testing again this afternoon.

Won't install without manually creating directories it's complaining about. 1a. Have not tested on upgraded system. I use fresh installs for every new ubuntu installation. 2. Makes no difference. One still is required to manually create directories. I think that somewhere during the build, the package is not getting told to use sudo access to create the proper destination directories and then fails. I assume this is a CMake issue? Dale > 1.)
