Has anyone been able to use the backwards-compatible mode of PackageMaker 3's command line tool to build a metapackage installer? If so, I'd like to know the magic to make it work without having created a .pmdoc first. When I try to build such and installer, I get this: $ PACKAGE_TITLE="Insert metapackage title here" $ /Developer/usr/bin/packagemaker -build -ms "./packages" \ -p "./build/$PACKAGE_TITLE.mpkg" \ -i "./Info.plist" \ -v Building in backwards compatible mode ERROR: No packages to build. [Fwiw, I've filed this as <rdar://problem/7728789>, because it happens with every metapackage I try to build with any selection of pre-existing sub-packages.] I'm trying to use the backwards compatible mode of /Developer/usr/bin/packagemaker so that I don't have to generate a .pmdoc file with the GUI PackageMaker first. It appears that PackageMaker 3's new command line options would allow building metapackages if a .pmdoc was present, but I can't see a way to use those new options without having a .pmdoc first.
