I've used PackageMaker, through its GUI, to make a pkg of a component, which came out as 765kB in size. To automate my build process a bit, I've now got a bash script which copys the component into a Temp folder and then builds the pkg using PackageMaker's command-line parameters, (extract below): "${PKGM}" -build -p ./MyAU.pkg -f ./Temp -d ./PackageStuff/AU/Description.plist -i ./PackageStuff/AU/info.plist This builds a pkg, which functions correctly. The only problem with it is that the pkg built with the command-line is 1.4mB in size. If I look at the contents, the difference in size is coming from the Contents/Resources sub-folder. In the GUI built pkg there's a .pax.gz file which is 1kB in size, but in the command-lne build pkg there's a .pax.gz file which is 700kB. Both pkg's have a .pax.gz of about 700kB in the Contents sub-folder, but it looks like the command-line built one has a duplicate in the Contents/Resources sub-folder. Does any one have any idea what's going on here? Depending on the package format, there can be a symbolic link in the Resources folder to the .pax.gz file in the Contents folder. If you're targeting Mac OS X 10.2 or later, you don't need this symbolic link. This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
