I have an installer that requires a hidden script and a source folder to be copied to a local folder (in this case /tmp) then given the command (via Terminal or via script) "sudo ./scriptname" for the application to install correctly.
In Snow Leopard, the UID & GID for /tmp are root:admin
In Lion, the UID & GID for /tmp are root:wheel
When I set the permissions to root:admin, run the package on Snow Leopard, the installer runs and installs the application as expected. But it will not run and install on Lion.
When I set the permissions to root:wheel, run the package on Lion, the installer runs and installs the application as expected. But it will not run and install on Snow Leopard.
The application is being installed for ALL USERS, and not specifically the logged in user.
Is it possible to have 1 package to install on both Snow Leopard and Lion? If so, how would I accomplish this?
A second issue I am having is the application being installed requires a restart in Snow Leopard for it to become active. In Lion, no restart is needed.
Is it possible to create 1 package that will restart after install if Snow Leopard but will not restart after install on Lion?
At this point, I'm thinking I'll need to create two packages: 1 for Snow Leopard, 1 for Lion...not ideal by any means, but workable.

Question: what are you trying to use the /tmp folder for?

Hey all,
I am trying packaging an application to install on Snow Leopard AND Lion but am running into permissions issues when using the /tmp folder for installs.
With the change of permissions from Snow Leopard (root/admin) to Lion (root/wheel), what is the best way to handle this?
