I used the PackageMaker.app from XCode 2.3 (PackageMaker version
2.1.1) recently to quickly put together some installers. In my case,
it's a Spotlight importer and some related open source libraries, so
the requirement is 10.4 or later.
The "Configuration" panel contains "Edit Package Requirements..."
which looked to be the best way to be sure
/System/Library/CoreServices/SystemVersion.plist was >= 10.4.
While PackageMaker.app offers "File Exists" and "Info from Bundle" in
the list, it doesn't offer plist. So there doesn't seem to be a good
way to use the GUI PackageMaker.app and reliably check system version
info.
Is there any way of doing this using the GUI, or do I need to file an
enhancement request against PackageMaker.app?
Since Requirements are only supported with Mac OS X 10.3 and later, it
may be wiser to test this using an InstallationCheck or VolumeCheck
script. This way it will also prevent installation on Mac OS X 10.2.8
and earlier.
