Hi,
I am installing an update patch for our program which contains a number of
files, including the .app.
I would like to delete the .app before installing the new one. In other
words, I don't want to just update the contents of the .app package, I want
to completely replace it. But note that I don't want *other* program
folders to be completely replaced, just the .app 'folder'.
What is the easiest way to do this?
Thanks,
Andrew
Can you add a preinstall script to search out your .app bundle and 'rm -r' it from the system?
