I see them after the "cmake" command runs. I attach the list I see.

Yes, you can additionally set -DCPACK_BINARY_DEB:BOOL=ON. Then, when you
run "make package", both deb and rpm files will be created. Note that
you need whatever tool makes deb files. i.e., to make rpm files on
Ubuntu I need to install the package "rpm" which contains the binary
"rpmbuild".
