Unfortunately the problem I described some time ago persists with PackageMaker 3.0.2 (174). It keeps driving me insane as well :-(

So is this a known bug? Anyone else experiencing the same? Workaround urgently needed …

Best Oliver



Hi,

I'm having a problem with PackageMaker 3.0.1 in conjunction with Subversion. All the source files needed to build the package are contained in a Subversion working directory which looks like this:

myapp.pmdoc/
payload/
	dir1/
	dir2/
	...
scripts/

Note that each directory contains an additional .svn/ directory with info for Subversion. Some of the directories under payload/ are empty but need to be placed onto the target nevertheless.

However, when running PackageMaker on this Subversion working directory those empty directories don't end up in the package as I checked with Pacifist. When I don't run PackageMaker on the working directory but on an exported directory (no .svn/ subdirectories but otherwise identical) everything's fine.

My suspicion is that the file filter rule /\.svn$ in PackageMaker is too aggressive and not only excludes the .svn/ subdirectory of an otherwsie empty directory but also the directory itself.

So how can I prevent this?

Best,
Oliver
