Re: Reinstalling Java 1.4.2?



What did you do that you need to reinstall it?

I haven't ever played with that particular package, but if you're
comfortable in the shell you could look into using gunzip and pax to
unpack the *.pkg/Contents/Resources/Archive.pax.gz file yourself.

The .pkg is actually a special directory, just like .apps --

Also be sure to check out the misc. script files in
Contents/Resources. More info here: http://tinyurl.com/bqkan

You could also look into using Pacifist to unpack the .pkg:
