# CPackDeb
# --------
#
# The builtin (binary) CPack Deb generator (Unix only)
#
# Variables specific to CPack Debian (DEB) generator
# ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
#
# CPackDeb may be used to create Deb package using CPack.
# CPackDeb is a CPack generator thus it uses the ``CPACK_XXX`` variables
# used by CPack : https://cmake.org/Wiki/CMake:CPackConfiguration.
# CPackDeb generator should work on any linux host but it will produce
# better deb package when Debian specific tools 'dpkg-xxx' are usable on
# the build system.
#
# CPackDeb has specific features which are controlled by the specifics
# :code:`CPACK_DEBIAN_XXX` variables.
#
# :code:`CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_XXXX` variables may be used in order to have
# **component** specific values.  Note however that ``<COMPONENT>`` refers to the
# **grouping name** written in upper case. It may be either a component name or
# a component GROUP name.
#
# You'll find a detailed usage on the wiki:
# https://cmake.org/Wiki/CMake:CPackPackageGenerators#DEB_.28UNIX_only.29 .
# However as a handy reminder here comes the list of specific variables:
#
# .. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_NAME
#
#  The Debian package summary
#
#  * Mandatory : YES
#  * Default   : :variable:`CPACK_PACKAGE_NAME` (lower case)
#
#
# .. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_VERSION
#
#  The Debian package version
#
#  * Mandatory : YES
#  * Default   : :variable:`CPACK_PACKAGE_VERSION`
#
#
# .. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_ARCHITECTURE
#
#  The Debian package architecture
#
#  * Mandatory : YES
#  * Default   : Output of :code:`dpkg --print-architecture` (or :code:`i386`
#    if :code:`dpkg` is not found)
#
#
# .. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_DEPENDS
#               CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_DEPENDS
#
#  Sets the Debian dependencies of this package.
#
#  * Mandatory : NO
#  * Default   :
#
#    - An empty string for non-component based installations
#    - :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_DEPENDS` for component-based
#      installations.
#
#  .. note::
#
#    If :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_SHLIBDEPS` or
#    more specifically :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_SHLIBDEPS`
#    is set for this component, the discovered dependencies will be appended
#    to :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_DEPENDS` instead of
#    :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_DEPENDS`. If
#    :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_DEPENDS` is an empty string,
#    only the automatically discovered dependencies will be set for this
#    component.
#
#  Example::
#
#    set(CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_DEPENDS "libc6 (>= 2.3.1-6), libc6 (< 2.4)")
#
#
# .. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_MAINTAINER
#
#  The Debian package maintainer
#
#  * Mandatory : YES
#  * Default   : :code:`CPACK_PACKAGE_CONTACT`
#
#
# .. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_DESCRIPTION
#               CPACK_COMPONENT_<COMPONENT>_DESCRIPTION
#
#  The Debian package description
#
#  * Mandatory : YES
#  * Default   :
#
#    - :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_DESCRIPTION` if set or
#    - :variable:`CPACK_PACKAGE_DESCRIPTION_SUMMARY`
#
#
# .. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_SECTION
#               CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_SECTION
#
#  Set Section control field e.g. admin, devel, doc, ...
#
#  * Mandatory : YES
#  * Default   : 'devel'
#
#  See https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-archive.html#s-subsections
#
#
# .. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_COMPRESSION_TYPE
#

#
#
# .. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_PRIORITY
#               CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_PRIORITY
#
#  Set Priority control field e.g. required, important, standard, optional,
#  extra
#
#  * Mandatory : YES
#  * Default   : 'optional'

#
#
# .. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_HOMEPAGE

#  site from which the original source can be obtained and any additional
#  upstream documentation or information may be found.
#
#  * Mandatory : NO
#  * Default   : -
#
#  .. note::
#
#    The content of this field is a simple URL without any surrounding
#    characters such as <>.
#
#
# .. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_SHLIBDEPS
#               CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_SHLIBDEPS
#
#  May be set to ON in order to use :code:`dpkg-shlibdeps` to generate
#  better package dependency list.
#
#  * Mandatory : NO
#  * Default   :
#
#    - :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_SHLIBDEPS` if set or
#    - OFF
#
#  .. note::
#
#    You may need set :variable:`CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH` to an appropriate value
#    if you use this feature, because if you don't :code:`dpkg-shlibdeps`
#    may fail to find your own shared libs.
#    See https://cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_RPATH_handling.
#
#
# .. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_DEBUG

#               CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_PREDEPENDS
#
#  Sets the `Pre-Depends` field of the Debian package.
#  Like :variable:`Depends <CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_DEPENDS>`, except that it
#  also forces :code:`dpkg` to complete installation of the packages named
#  before even starting the installation of the package which declares the
#  pre-dependency.
#
#  * Mandatory : NO
#  * Default   :
#
#    - An empty string for non-component based installations
#    - :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_PREDEPENDS` for component-based
#      installations.
#
#  See http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-binarydeps
#
# .. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_ENHANCES
#               CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_ENHANCES
#
#  Sets the `Enhances` field of the Debian package.
#  Similar to :variable:`Suggests <CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_SUGGESTS>` but works
#  in the opposite direction: declares that a package can enhance the
#  functionality of another package.
#
#  * Mandatory : NO
#  * Default   :
#
#    - An empty string for non-component based installations
#    - :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_ENHANCES` for component-based
#      installations.
#
#  See http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-binarydeps
#
# .. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_BREAKS
#               CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_BREAKS
#
#  Sets the `Breaks` field of the Debian package.
#  When a binary package (P) declares that it breaks other packages (B),
#  :code:`dpkg` will not allow the package (P) which declares `Breaks` be
#  **unpacked** unless the packages that will be broken (B) are deconfigured
#  first.
#  As long as the package (P) is configured, the previously deconfigured
#  packages (B) cannot be reconfigured again.
#
#  * Mandatory : NO
#  * Default   :
#
#    - An empty string for non-component based installations
#    - :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_BREAKS` for component-based
#      installations.
#
#  See https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-breaks
#
#
# .. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_CONFLICTS
#               CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_CONFLICTS
#
#  Sets the `Conflicts` field of the Debian package.
#  When one binary package declares a conflict with another using a `Conflicts`
#  field, :code:`dpkg` will not allow them to be unpacked on the system at
#  the same time.
#
#  * Mandatory : NO
#  * Default   :
#
#    - An empty string for non-component based installations
#    - :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_CONFLICTS` for component-based
#      installations.
#
#  See https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-conflicts
#
#  .. note::
#
#    This is a stronger restriction than
#    :variable:`Breaks <CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_BREAKS>`, which prevents the
#    broken package from being configured while the breaking package is in
#    the "Unpacked" state but allows both packages to be unpacked at the same
#    time.
#
# .. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_PROVIDES
#               CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_PROVIDES
#
#  Sets the `Provides` field of the Debian package.
#  A virtual package is one which appears in the `Provides` control field of
#  another package.
#
#  * Mandatory : NO
#  * Default   :
#
#    - An empty string for non-component based installations
#    - :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_PROVIDES` for component-based
#      installations.
#
#  See https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-virtual
#
#
# .. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_REPLACES
#               CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_REPLACES
#
#  Sets the `Replaces` field of the Debian package.
#  Packages can declare in their control file that they should overwrite
#  files in certain other packages, or completely replace other packages.
#
#  * Mandatory : NO
#  * Default   :
#
#    - An empty string for non-component based installations
#    - :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_REPLACES` for component-based
#      installations.
#
#  See http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-binarydeps
#
#
# .. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_RECOMMENDS
#               CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_RECOMMENDS
#
#  Sets the `Recommends` field of the Debian package.
#  Allows packages to declare a strong, but not absolute, dependency on other
#  packages.
#
#  * Mandatory : NO
#  * Default   :
#
#    - An empty string for non-component based installations
#    - :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_RECOMMENDS` for component-based
#      installations.
#
#  See http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-binarydeps

#  Allows packages to declare a suggested package install grouping.
#
#  * Mandatory : NO
#  * Default   :
#
#    - An empty string for non-component based installations
#    - :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_SUGGESTS` for component-based
#      installations.
#
#  See http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-binarydeps
#
#
# .. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_CONTROL_EXTRA
#               CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_CONTROL_EXTRA
#
#  This variable allow advanced user to add custom script to the
#  control.tar.gz.
#  Typical usage is for conffiles, postinst, postrm, prerm.
#
#  * Mandatory : NO
#  * Default   : -
#
#  Usage::
#
#   set(CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_CONTROL_EXTRA
#       "${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR/prerm;${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/postrm")
#
#  .. note::
#
#    The original permissions of the files will be used in the final
#    package unless the variable
#    :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_CONTROL_STRICT_PERMISSION` is set.
#    In particular, the scripts should have the proper executable
#    flag prior to the generation of the package.
#
# .. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_CONTROL_STRICT_PERMISSION
#               CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_CONTROL_STRICT_PERMISSION
#
#  This variable indicates if the Debian policy on control files should be
#  strictly followed.
#
#  * Mandatory : NO
#  * Default   : FALSE
#
#  Usage::
#
#   set(CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_CONTROL_STRICT_PERMISSION TRUE)
#
#  .. note::
#
#    This overrides the permissions on the original files, following the rules
#    set by Debian policy
#    https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-files.html#s-permissions-owners
#
# .. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_SOURCE
#               CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_SOURCE
#
#  Sets the ``Source`` field of the binary Debian package.
#  When the binary package name is not the same as the source package name
#  (in particular when several components/binaries are generated from one
#  source) the source from which the binary has been generated should be
#  indicated with the field ``Source``.
#
#  * Mandatory : NO
#  * Default   :
#
#    - An empty string for non-component based installations
#    - :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_SOURCE` for component-based
#      installations.
#
#  See https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html#s-f-Source
#
#  .. note::
#
#    This value is not interpreted. It is possible to pass an optional
