Hello,
Please help me with the below questions.
I have a flat meta-package and Distribution file inside.
I am wondering if it's possible to configure pkg-locations dynamically in the Distribution-file.
For example, check if the pkg can be found locally in the Packages folder, if it is - take the local file; otherwise - take pkg from http-server.
Is there any way to accomplish this?
And another question: I locate packages at http-server and at build time I don't know the exact location on the server where the packages will be uploaded. So I tried to use redirection in the pkg-ref tag of Distribution file:
But installation fails complaining on wrong format (cpio read error).
In installer.log I can see that all the packages are downloaded to the same location /private/tmp/com.apple.installer.downloads.JLic/redirect.aspx ! Perhaps that's the root cause...
If I replace the "redirect" URL with the "plain" URL, installation performs successfully.
Could you advice me any work around for this redirection problem?
Thanks
/ Ana
