Hi. I just wrote a prefrence pane. After testing it in
~/Library/PreferencePanes, I have placed it in
/System/Library/PreferencePanes. Using either location though, System
Preferences always displays my new preferences bundle at the bottom,
in the "Other" category.

I want it to appear at the top, in the "Personal" category.

What do I need to change?

Nothing. Third-party preference panes appear in Other. Period. It's a feature.


FWIW, the categorization information is stored in the NSPrefPaneGroups.plist file inside the System Preferences application itself.
