Hello,

A directory is a package if:

1) it has a known suffix .app, .bundle, etc.
2) it has the bundle bit set
3) it has a known structure indicating its a bundle

I wonder about suffices which are known on one system but not in the other...


For example, I copied an .xcodeproj bundle to a system which didn't have the Xcode tools installed. The Finder treated the bundle as ordinary folder; is this intended behaviour?

Following the requirements list given above (and assuming the three requirements are AND'd), it would be correct behaviour, because the .xcodeproj bundle type is unknown on that system.
Still, it would be nice if that bundled document would have been recognised as "some bundled document" with unknown corresponding application...


Best,
Dirk Stegemann
