i'm having a difficult time packaging up two drag-installable plugins for adobe indesign cs2 and adobe illustrator cs2. the plugins can be downloaded here:
http://dl.extensis.com/downloads/SC/EN/M/IllCS2_SuitcaseX1.zip
http://dl.extensis.com/downloads/SC/EN/M/SC_InDesign_1104.zip
the target computers are running 10.4.8. the paths are as follows:
/Applications/Adobe\ InDesign\ CS2/Plug-Ins/SCAutoActivation.framework
/Applications/Adobe\ Illustrator\ CS2/Plug-ins.localized/Extensions.localized/Suitcase\ Auto-Activation\ X.aip
not that on the illustrator plugin, the finder INSISTS on hiding the *.localized extensions on the Plug-Ins and Extensions folders DISPITE my setting my finder to ALWAYS show file extensions. my first attempts to package these two simple plugins were spoiled by this problem...but i was able to get the correct paths. however, when i push the package to workstations, the packages unwind (they lose their extensis icons and end up as wide open packages (as if we chose to "view package contents").
has anyone else had this problem? it's driving me mad! :) i know, i know...why not cs3? well, it's too soon...once it matures we'll test and roll out. for now, i need to get these two simple drag-installable plugins out to our users.
if anyone is interested, i've uploaded a zip'd archive of my project folder (total size is about 400k):
