The database itself is an SQLite database. I have some success using
SQLite Database Browser to read its contents. Make sure to work on a
copy of that database just to be on the safe side.

Hi all,
I’ve just upgraded to Leopard, and PackageMaker v3.0.1. I see that
Apple have introduced a database for installer packages in \Library
\Receipts.
I can’t seem to find much info or documentation about this. Test
installers I’ve created with the new PackageMaker end up as a .pkg
bundle in \Library\Receipts, like they used to on Tiger. Using
pkgutil to display the contents of the database shows no sign of my
test packages.
First question I guess is this – Does anyone know of any useful
documentation or information source for this installer package
database?
Second question(s) – How to make an installer package integrate with
the database? I’ve seen references to ‘flat packages’ here and
there – is this what it needs?
Kind Regards
