Hi All,
I'm trying to package firefox app with preflight script to kill the
app and trash the app before installing a fresh copy. The script works
pretty fine with the package.
When I try to add system requirements to the package it gets failed.
I'm pretty new to packaging . Below are my queries. Please address
1) When I include minimum available hard disk bytes on target , It
creates a Distribution.dist file inside the package. ( Not sure of the
reason.)
2) When I include memory requirement and include the preflight script
it works fine. ( For memory it does not create a .dist file)
I have pasted the details of the .dist file below.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="no"?>
<installer-script minSpecVersion="1.000000"
authoringTool="com.apple.PackageMaker" authoringToolVersion="3.0.4"
authoringToolBuild="179">
<title>Firefox</title>
<options customize="never" allow-external-scripts="no"
rootVolumeOnly="true"/>
<installation-check script="pm_install_check();"/>
<volume-check script="pm_volume_check();"/>
<script>function pm_volume_check() {
if(!(my.target.availableKilobytes >= 200 * 1024 * 1024)) {
my.result.title = 'Failure';
my.result.message = 'Installation cannot proceed, as not all
requirements were met.';
my.result.type = 'Fatal';
return false;
}
return true;
}
function pm_install_check() {
if(!(system.sysctl('hw.memsize') >= 512*1024*1024*1024)) {
my.result.title = 'Memory Available';
my.result.message = 'Installation cannot proceed, as not all
requirements were met.';
my.result.type = 'Fatal';
return false;
}
return true;
}
</script>

</search>
<search id="pkmktoken81-0" type="script"
script="pkmktoken81_combined()">
<script>
function pkmktoken81_combined() {
function pkmk_add_results_to_array(results, array) {
for(i = 0; i < results.length; i++)
array.push(results[i]);
}
var result = new Array();
var search;
search = my.search.results['pkmktoken81-1'];
if(search) pkmk_add_results_to_array(search, result);
return result;
}
</script>
</search>
<search type="script" id="pkmktoken81" script="pkmktoken81_final()">
<script>
function pkmktoken81_final() {
var combined = my.search.results['pkmktoken81-0'];
return combined;
}
</script>
</search>
</locator>
</installer-script>
Please do let me know where I'm going wrong. I tried to modify the
.dist fie but to no avail.
Thanks,
Vishnu
