- Thread-topic: No global Components folder in /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins in Snow Leopard??
I'm just doing some compatibility testing with Snow Leopard and I've found that although our installers apparently work (writing to /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components), the resulting components are not detected in any Audio Unit host or with auval. After copying the plug-ins to the local components folder ~/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components they work just fine.
It seems to me that in fact an out of the box install of Snow Leopard doesn't actually have the /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components folder and AU hosts now ignore it.
What's the reasoning for this? it's not as if its easy to get PackageMaker to write to a user folder - and surely it breaks rather a lot of installers already in the wild?
Kind regards
