Installer reporting wrong final size - storing old receipt info somewhere

  • Thread-topic: Installer reporting wrong final size - storing old receipt info somewhere

INFO:
On my development machine once I select a Volume to install my app to it
reports the size of the final install incorrectly.  This appears to be
because the OS thinks I already have it installed and is just "being
helpful."

I have verified that there is no receipt in either the /Library/Receipts
folder or in the dB by calling, "pkgutil --packages"

I assume this is a receipt issue because if I change the CFBundleIdentifier
string in package.pkg/Contents/Info.plist then it reports the correct size.

Questions:
1) why am I seeing this behavior?
2) is there some other place I should check for receipts?
3) what is a good way to clean up my development box so that I don't run
into this in the future?

Thanks!
