Hello,
we have an pkgbuild generated installer that requires Firefox, Chrome and Safari to be closed before running. In the distribution file we have this bit
<pkg-ref id="com.company.thing">
<must-close>
<app id="org.mozilla.firefox"/>
<app id="com.apple.Safari"/>
<app id="com.google.Chrome"/>
</must-close>
</pkg-ref>
And this all works fine and dandy (all open browsers are requested to be closed) when the user runs the installer by double clicking on it and bringing up the GUI. However, if they run the installer using the command "installer -pkg OurInstaller.pkg -target CurrentUserHome" the installer fails to prompt or close the browsers and the installer eventually times out.
Any idea on why this is or how we can get around it?
thanks,
Owen
