Hi,
Say you need to install something into /Library instead of ~/Library. Your
installer application will need Administrator privileges.
According to the Authorization Services doc you cannot modify the privileges
granted to your app at run time, but you have to build a separate installer
tool that you will launch using "AuthorizationExecuteWithPrivileges".
I find this quite complicated. Am I correct, or did I miss something?
Otherwise, can you use a Cocoa app instead of a standard tool with
"AuthorizationExecuteWithPrivileges"?
