Since I got asked (more than once) about using postUPPGRADE scripts (not just postinstall), I assumed there was some bug in packagemaker that mean it was supporting those as a workaround for not supporting postINSTALL scripts.


So, I had specified a postinstall script (per 10.5 - normal) as well as a directory containing a scripts "postupgrade". Of course, I tried builgind and installing packages with and without that option - nothing seemed to work.

If you can provide a sample package illustrating the issue, this can help.


As far as I can tell (from the documentation), postupgrade script are not supported by the FLAT package format. Adding one to the resources would not help.
