Extra slashes in some locations can
cause errors during package generation
and can also be present in generated
rpm packages causing issues for the
package user.
Closes#16619
* In older version "%dir %attr(-, root, root) foo" would put "%dir foo"
in the final spec file.
* Also added comment to describe this and advise not not to add trailing
slashes to directories in USER_FILELIST.
* Includes test in RunCMake CPack which now passes.
`CPACK_RPM_COMPONENT_INSTALL` is the correct variable to set to enable
component packaging. `CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_COMPONENT` is just set to a
component name when CPack calls corresponding installer.
Per-source copyright/license notice headers that spell out copyright holder
names and years are hard to maintain and often out-of-date or plain wrong.
Precise contributor information is already maintained automatically by the
version control tool. Ultimately it is the receiver of a file who is
responsible for determining its licensing status, and per-source notices are
merely a convenience. Therefore it is simpler and more accurate for
each source to have a generic notice of the license name and references to
more detailed information on copyright holders and full license terms.
Our `Copyright.txt` file now contains a list of Contributors whose names
appeared source-level copyright notices. It also references version control
history for more precise information. Therefore we no longer need to spell
out the list of Contributors in each source file notice.
Replace CMake per-source copyright/license notice headers with a short
description of the license and links to `Copyright.txt` and online information
available from "https://cmake.org/licensing". The online URL also handles
cases of modules being copied out of our source into other projects, so we
can drop our notices about replacing links with full license text.
Run the `Utilities/Scripts/filter-notices.bash` script to perform the majority
of the replacements mechanically. Manually fix up shebang lines and trailing
newlines in a few files. Manually update the notices in a few files that the
script does not handle.
In commit v3.6.0-rc1~66^2 (CPack/RPM different package names,
2016-05-15) we forgot the non-uppercased fallback variable name
`CPACK_RPM_<COMPONENT>_FILE_NAME`. Add it now.
Directives that are legal inside the %files section of an RPM spec may
contain a variety of characters particularly when specifying %caps which
can include +, _, and space. Watch for parenthesis to determine what
forms the prefix vs. path.
Fixes#14362.
Packagers may now set their own rpm package
file names or request that rpmbuild tool
chooses one for them. It also supports handing
of situations where one spec file may produce
multiple rpm packages.
Symbolic links that point to external
location no longer cause cmake to fail
with string out of bounds error but
are instead packaged as non relocatable
symlinks and print out a warning message.
RPM supports setting of default user, group,
file and directory permissions that will be
applied for files in package unless specified
per file/dir with attr setting

CPACK_* variables expect component name in upper case.
CPACK_RPM_* variables expected component name to be
in same case as component name.
This patch adds support for CPACK_RPM_* variables with
upper case component names to match the convention with
CPACK_* variables and also preserves same case component
names for back compatibility.
The latter is now the preferred URL for visiting cmake.org with a
browser. Convert using the shell code:
git ls-files -z | xargs -0 sed -i 's|http://www\.cmake|https://cmake|g'
