Basically PackageMaker is storing the original version in it's xml

Delete all occurrences of version="1.0" from the xml file and it will
use the apps Info.plist version instead.


This approach worked well for me with Xcode tools 3.1, but not for Xcode tools 3.2. Under 3.2, it seems that removing the "version" attribute from the <component> elements in .pmdoc's internal XML files did not fix the problem. Instead, I found that I had to basically update the version attribute values to match the CFBundleVersion values in Info.plist. I added this to my build workflow using an XSLT transform.

I'd be curious to know if removing the version attribute works for others using Xcode tools 3.2.
