Switch to using libarchive from libtar for cpack and cmake -E tar
This allows for a built in bzip and zip capability, so external tools will not be needed for these packagers. The cmake -E tar xf should be able to handle all compression types now as well.

+More complete build documentation is available on the libarchive
+Wiki: http://libarchive.googlecode.com/
+
+On most Unix-like systems, you should be able to install libarchive,
+bsdtar, and bsdcpio using the following common steps:
+ ./configure
+ make
+ make install
+
+If you need to customize the target directories or otherwise adjust
+the build setting, use
+ ./configure --help
+to list the configure options.
+
+If you are developing libarchive and need to update the
+configure script and other build files:
+ /bin/sh build/autogen.sh
+
+To create a distribution, please use the 'distcheck' target:
+ /bin/sh build/autogen.sh && ./configure && make distcheck
+
+On non-Unix-like systems, use the "cmake" utility (available from
+http://cmake.org/) to generate suitable build files for your platform.
+Cmake requires the name of the directory containing CmakeLists.txt and
+the "generator" to use for your build environment. For example, to
+build with Xcode on Mac OS, you can use the following command:
+ cmake -G "Xcode" ~/libarchive-download-dir/
+The result will be appropriate makefiles, solution files, or project
+files that can be used with the corresponding development tool.
+See the libarchive Wiki or the cmake site for further documentation. \ No newline at end of file
