You'll get the warnings even if you use '--no-recommend'. Here are
your options:
1) Ignore the warnings.
2) Change the owner/group/mode of items on the disk to match what you
are creating in your packageroot
3) Change the owner/group/mode of items in the packageroot to match
the items on disk.
Which way you go on 2 vs 3 depends on which you consider having the
"correct" owner/group/mode.
Packagemaker is doing the right thing in warning you that items
installed from the package you are currently building will have
different owner/group/mode than the items currently installed on disk.
It's up to you to decide how to react to the warning.

Thanks for all the previous help with my packagemaker issues... I
think I'm getting there. I'm just wondering about the warnings that
PM throws at me. In particular - I get lots of things like this:
-- "Warning: Group ID 80 does not match 501 of root volume for "/
Applications/Auralia.app". Make sure.... " etc etc
I get lots and lots of those... for each file that is in the
Auralia.app bundle. I do have an /Applications/Auralia.app, and
there is a /Applications/Auralia.app in my temporary PackageRoot
directory. It seems that packagemaker is comparing the
permissions / owners etc of the installed app and those of the
temporary package. My command to build the package is as follows:
/Developer/usr/bin/packagemaker -d Auralia.pmdoc -o Auralia.pkg -m -v
Can I tell packagemaker to somehow NOT do this compare?
Thanks,
Peter Lee
