This seems to be a common workaround for CPack issue on macOS. Script has 10 attempts and in the worst case it will take 55 seconds for it to fail.
CMake requires that its CMakeList.txt files follow the directory structure of the projects. However, for Audacity this would cause collision with existing CMakeList.txt files that e.g. expat and libsoxr already provide. Our solution is to have this proxy directory for lib-src to hold our version of the CMakeList.txt files. We did try bundling several libraries under one CMakeList.txt without using subdirectories. However, we were then fighting CMake too much - and did not have a clean separation of information between sub projects.
