I am trying to use the --filter option to get rid of the contents of
a few folders and am having troubles writing the filter lines in a way
that they pick up everything in the folder, but don't wipe out the
folder as well. For a little more clarity: I am writing a small
program that will package up a template user into a .pkg for use in a
imaging (ask in deploying computers) solution. It would be difficult
for me to figure out if I have to re-create certain folders (like ~/
Downloads) as one part of this operation does not talk to the other
(except through this package), and there is the potential that odd
things like ACLs or non-standard permissions could be applied to them.
So far I have tried:
^\./Library/Caches/.+$
^\./Library/Caches/*$
^\./Library/Caches/.
And everything I have tried either does not match, or wipes out the
directory as well (all these examples do the latter). Apple's
documentation on the subject just talks about this being a "regular
expression" and goes no farther. Anyone have any good ideas?
