Hi,
I try to do an installer in package maker. If there is an certain
application installed on the system, I want to install my package.
If this app is not on the disk, no install.
So I did a new choice and in the tab requirments, I've added a
requirment "File Exists on Target" and liked to the actuall app.
But when I run the installer, the choise is never enabled, even is
the app is in fact on the system.
So I've tried so link to the actuall executable (app.app/content/
Mac OS/app) with no luck.
It would be interesting to see your distribution script.
I've just tried a "File Exists on Target" requirements and I've seen
the following bugs in PackageMaker:
- Bug #1: If you change the path, it's not taken into account
sometimes when building the package.
- Bug #2: If you change the Pass If condition in the Requirements
list from true to false, the resulting script is not modified.
- Enh #1: When you select the path, the validate button should be
labeled "Choose" instead of "Open".
But otherwise the requirement works.
It's just that you can't create a "If File does not exist on Target
requirement" with PackageMaker. You would need to edit the script
manually (which is honestly the only reasonable way to do it with
PackageMaker 3.x).
