Sorry if this is an oft discussed topic but I could not find any specific answer for it. I am signing my pkg using packagemaker --sign. I found no way of verifying the signature. One of the discussions mentioned that Installer includes UI for verifying the identity but I could not find any such thing. Does anyone know of any technique?
Secondly, when I try to sign, the system throws an authentication dialog. I tried invoking the command with sudo yet I could not work around it. I would like to be able to build and sign the installer on any machine and manually selecting Always Allow on all machines is not an option. Is there any way to sign silently?
Thanks, Sakshi
For signed packages, when you open them in Installer.app, a certificate icon will appear in the upper right corner of the window, in the window frame. You can click on it and the certificate information will be displayed [it's validity, who signed it]. I don't know what happens if the signature is found to be invalid.
