Installer-dev mailing list (Installer-dev@lists.apple.com) Help/Unsubscribe/Update your Subscription: http://lists.apple.com/mailman/options/installer-dev/site_archiver%40lists.a... Is there a reference anywhere that explains in detail how install decisions are made by Apple's installer? I'm looking for info on what items it looks at to make the informed decisions it makes ( plists, bundle identifiers, receipts, ... ). The reason i'm asking is because we have some old software that always gets installed over newer versions of the same software but the installers are built form the same project and the versions have been bumped If the bundle identifiers of the packages are different, it can be a reason why an older version can be installed over a newer one.
