Hi guys,
Can you tell me which is the right way to trigger update of the kext cache from a package, because currently I'm just "touching" /S/L/E in the final postinstall script, but I don't know when the rebuilding process has finished and as far as I know, it's not a good idea to restart the machine before this process is completed. Is there a way to rebuild the cache from a package and when the process is over, then the final Summary screen to appear? Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure what's causing it, but with our installer, Installer.app always waits for kextcache to finish before displaying the Install Succeeded screen.  Sometimes, kextcache fails, and Installer.app catches it and fails the install.  Either way, stdout and stderr from kextcache are always in the install log.

Is your install finishing before kextcache finishes?

Thanks,
Andrew Keller
