Re: Creating a "stuffed" .dmg



Thanks!  That helped.

Two things:

Full path names do not seem to be required.

The -i option is required, contrary to 'man packagemaker' which says:

     -i       Path to property list file (.plist) that is copied to the pack-
              age's Contents directory as Info.plist, the only modification
              being the insertion of the package's installed size (IFPkgFla-
              gInstalledSize). If this option is unspecified a skeletal
              Info.plist is generated for the package (see "Developer Tools:
              Software Distribution" for the default values).

I obtained an Info.plist by building the package with the GUI and copying the resulting Info.plist.

Here's a snippet from my Makefile:

        $(PACKAGEMAKER) -build -p $(CURDIR)/$(INSTALLPKG)  \
                -f $(CURDIR)/dstroot \
                -r $(CURDIR)/Install/Resources \
                -i $(CURDIR)/Install/Info.plist \
                -d $(CURDIR)/Install/Description.plist
