Hello installer-dev,
I'm creating Installer packages completely by hand (don't ask ;) and I'm
trying to get pax to generate archives that Installer will swallow.
I've been using "pax -w -z -f Archive.pax.gz ." to archive the folder
containing the package data, which produces a valid archive, but whenever
I use that in an Installer .pkg, Installer complains it's an out-of-date
format and proceeds no further. Examining archives generated via
Iceberg provided me with no clues...
I haven't yet tried using the -x flag... which pax format is
Installer expecting?
