Then it hangs out there for a good 5 minutes. The log says "Extracting files". So I assume this is it simply unarchiving the rather large Archive.pax.gz file. The problem is that most users are going to think the installer has frozen. In fact, I did myself. Is this normal that the progress bar doesn't get updated while unarchiving? I can't easily break this package into smaller ones.
There's size-related things in the Info.plist and the distribution file of the installer script. If they are missing, or if they indicate the package is teeny-tiny, the installer will behave this way. |
