Thanks, Peter. It was the latter case (package was installed
previously) that resulted in 0 bytes. How exactly is the "upgrade"
size
computed?
The reason I'm asking is related to what happens when the user
uninstalls, then reinstalls the same package. My uninstaller
application removes all installed apps, but leaves the original receipt
file around. When the user tries to install the same package again, he
see Upgrade 0 bytes, but I would like for him to see Upgrade X(Total)
bytes. Should I just delete the receipt file as a part of the
uninstall, or what is the proper way to do this? I am not currently
using version.plist files. Thanks!
Removing the receipt files seems to be a good idea in the current OS
releases.
Check the uninstall perl script for Xcode to see if Apple is doing it
on its side.
