Build the bundle package, copy out the distribution.dist file, and stuff into your real package created with the command line packagemaker tool. Warning: I had annoying problems with the distribution.dist created by PackageMaker 3 from Snow Leopard. It produced different code from PackageMaker 3 on Leopard. The Snow Leopard-created version wouldn't run correctly on a Leopard system -- at least when I stuffed the distribution.dist into an existing package in this manner. (Did not file in Radar.) I was trying out something like this so that I could get requirements set up for a package. I abandoned this process in favor of creating not-flat packages with InstallationCheck and VolumeCheck scripts. You lose the built-in convenience functions (as far as I know you can't use the JavaScript-style requirements in these scripts) but you can create them in the scripting language of your choice (assuming those scripting languages and versions match what'll be on your expected target OSes). -- Jeremy _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
