Commit 438a7e2f (Fix utility dependencies for static libraries in VS
generators, 2007-04-04) implemented utility-only dependencies between
linkable targets by introducing an intermediate non-linkable target.
We convert a dependency of the form
foo -> bar
to the form
foo -> bar_UTILITY -> bar
to prevent foo from including bar on its link line. Previously we added
the extra "_UTILITY" targets explicitly among the project targets before
dependency analysis was performed. Now we generate them separately at
the last moment so that cmGlobalGenerator need not be aware of them.
Compute VS target dependencies in cmGlobalVisualStudioGenerator when the
main global dependency analysis is done. Use these results in each of
the VS generators instead of duplicating the analysis.
find_package() now also stores the required version automatically, so it
can be used by FeatureSummary.cmake.
This was one of the requested features for setting up nightly builds
for KDE, since with this functionality it will be possible to write
a file at the end of each project which lists all required packages
and their versions. This file could then be compared for equality
with an older one and if something has changed the build maintainer
can be emailed.
In FeatureSummary.cmake there is now a new function feature_summary(),
which also allows to print the log to a file or into a variable.
It also allows to specify whether to append to a file or to write a new
one, and what information to log.
Docs are still missing.

The idea of the patch is to let the install generator define
CPACK_ABSOLUTE_INSTALL_FILES then when CMake is installing
project he will concatenate the list of files and give
it to specific CPack Generator by defining CPACK_ABSOLUTE_INSTALL_FILES
to be the list of ALL files that were installed using absolute destination.
An example of use has been applied to RPM generator which now
tries to automatically build a relocatable package.
When none of the options /Z7, /Zi and /ZI are specified in the cmake
project settings, the project will open in the editor with "Program
Database" as the default debug information format, ending up always
generating PDBs regardless of project configuration.
Modify the output project file so that if the debug information format
is not specified in the cmake project settings it will default to no PDB
generated, just like all the previous other Visual Studio versions.
This problem comes from the fact that Microsoft changed the default
setting of the debug information format to be "Program Database" instead
of "Disabled".
Refactor how cmCTestMemCheckHandler computes the memory tester command
line options to avoid encoding them in a single string just to parse
them again. The EscapeSpaces uses backslahes to escape spaces on UNIX
platforms, so replace other calls to it in CTest that are used to create
human-readable strings with simple double-quoting.

Add platform configuration variable CMAKE_SYSTEM_IGNORE_PATH and user
configuration variable CMAKE_IGNORE_PATH. These specify a set of
directories that will be ignored by all the find commands. Update
FindPackageTest so that several cases will fail without a functioning
CMAKE_IGNORE_PATH.
This is not needed but it does not cost much to do it for all
potentially supported format in libarchive. XZ and LZMA are not
builtin libarchive and require external lib but if
CMAKE_USE_SYSTEM_LIBARCHIVE is ON then we may get it for free.
This will be needed to use cmArchiveWrire in cmCPackArchiveGenerator
with the same feature set as before. Note that adding zip
support to libarchive-wrapper would also makes it easy to add
a new -E zip command to cmake commands.
The multi-argument CompressFiles(...) method has been replace by the
no-argument PackageFiles() method and 3 more member variables. This
will enable implemention of multi-package generators. Now each specific
generator (which overloads PackageFiles()) may decide to change the name
and/or the number of generated package files.
Some stream libraries return size_t from gcount() and some return
ssize_t. Add an explicit cast to ios::streamsize for its return value.
Also refactor use of nnext to reduce the use of casts.
