There is another program shipped with CMake called CPack. It is possible to create tarballs with it.

At the moment there are just options for selecting a prefix and a build-type (e.g. Release, Debug) I'll add some options for further selecting data-, font-, bin-path. > > I don't mean Cmake is not useful, but it implies big changes.
