Hi,
I’ve just the same thing during testing.
From what I can tell, files installed to /private/tmp don’t show
up on Tiger, but they do on Leopard and Snow Leopard.
Is this to be expected / a bug ??
Regards,
Dave

Subject: Problem with installing to /private/tmp
I have built a package
installer for my app which generally seems to work successfully. However, on
some machines there seems to be an issue with installing a file to the
/private/tmp folder. The file I am installing here is later used in a
post-flight script where it is conditionally copied to another folder. The
problem manifests itself as an "Install Failed" at the end of
the installation process. The exact error is: "The following install step
failed: run postflight script...".
From looking at the
install.log file, it appears that the post-flight script is failing due to the
file that is supposed to be installed to /private/tmp not being present. This
confirmed by the following line in install.log which indicates that one file
from the installer has not been written (26206 of 26207 files):
May 25 06:26:28
Jamie-Coventry pkgExtractor[295]: 26206 of 26207 files written in 133.07
seconds.
Has anyone got any idea what
might be causing this failure to install the file on some machines?
