(AH...sorry forgot to change the subject)
I am trying to create an installer for a product that consists of the
following pieces
* a firefox extension that needs to be placed into ~/Library/
Application Support/Profiles/XXXX/extensions/
* a script that needs to be run to install a 3rdparty piece of software
I am really having a terrible time figuring out how to do this.
Basically, I could do everything I need from a shell script, but I
cannot figure out how to bundle the resources and have my pkg simply
run a script that would unpack/copy/execute the resources as neccessary.
I am building the pkg with PackageMaker 3.0.1 on Leopard.
Is there a way to simply put everything into one "bundle" with all the
real data in the Resources directory and have it simply call a shell
script during install?
Thanks for any tips!
- ian.
