RE: How to make Installer find installed location when do upgrade andIFPkgFlagRelocatable is set to true



"In addition, When I installed my packages, they will be copied into / 
Library/Receipts/. When I search using pkgutil, I don't found any  
information of my packages but only apple's packages."

Hi, I had a similar query and it seems that if the package is Leopard
only, it will be added to the installer package database.  Otherwise, it
will go into /Library/Receipts.

Subject: How to make Installer find installed location when do upgrade
andIFPkgFlagRelocatable is set to true

I create two disk images which all set "relocation" to TRUE.  One is  
Ver1 and another is Ver2.

When I installed the Ver1, I change the install destination to other  
folder but not default location.  I want Ver2 can do upgrade for  
Ver1.  But if I don't change folder to the location specified for Ver1  
manually when I install Ver2, Installer will install it to the default  
location.

Is it possible that installer to find the location automatically? for  
example by receipt DB?

In addition, When I installed my packages, they will be copied into / 
Library/Receipts/. When I search using pkgutil, I don't found any  
information of my packages but only apple's packages.

What's wrong with the package?

Thanks!
