Hi Folks,
Just got back from WWDC. I got a chance to meet some of the installer team and posed a question I've been curious about for a while. They said that it's not supported in by the pkg/installer tools, but suggested I subscribe to this list and post the question - hopefully some of you may have tackled this already.
In a nutshell, I need to create a package that when deployed through a deployment tool (such as ARD, but our software does this too) can have the applications run icon added to the Applications folder of all users of the machine set up with Simple Finder. This is kind of an extension to the need to be able to add an application to the dock (system or nominated user), but in this case it's a Simple Finder scenario.
When chatting to the installer team we talked about writing post flight shell or applescripts to update dock plist files, but that seems to be susceptible to different versions of OS X.
Any help would be much appreciated.
regards,
Murray.
