New NSIS Releases do not work with CMake before 2.8.11
Closed, InvalidPublic
Actions

Description

Due to a change in the NSIS default section names, there is a name collision with a section previously created and named by CPack [1]. This Problem has been fixed in CMake after version 2.8.11 [2].

So far the policy has been to at least support the CMake version of the last ubuntu LTS, which currently is 2.8.7. Considering this is a windows only problem to bump up the CMake version to 2.8.11 for all OSes seems excessive.

A possible solution is to set the required CMake version to 2.8.11 if the OS is windows and NSIS is enabled.

Apparently CMake was not the problem.
The problem is NSIS

in the current version 3.0a1 the mentioned problem occurs.

The older available version 2.46 creates no problems.

This should no longer be an issue as soon the minimum cmake version will be upgraded to 3.x
