Background bitmap no longer showing (TRY 2)
by Howard Moon 04 Aug '15

04 Aug '15

(My first attempt at this email was reported as not being successfully delivered, so I am trying again…) I just noticed that my flat installer packages no longer show the background bitmap as they used to do. It shows up fine while in Packages itself, but when run, there is no background image. Any idea why not? Did Apple remove that feature under Yosemite?

You could make an app out of your shellscript for this purpose with http://www.sveinbjorn.org/platypus . Then sign your new app. HTH > Am 04.08.2015 um 05:31 schrieb Howard Moon <howard(a)antarestech.com>: > > Can a shell scriot (.command file) be signed so that Gatekeep will let it pass somehow? > > We’ve got an uninstall script that we include in our flat package installers, which are signed, and the uninstall script that is installed in our Applications sub-folder has no problems with Gatekeeer, I assume because it was installed from within the signed installer package. > > However, we would like to *also* include the sript in the .dmg we distribute, alongside the installer package, so users can perform the uninstall from the disk image OR from the actual install location.
