There are bugs with PackageMaker concerning relocatability. PackageMaker 3.0.3 was released recently, with changes to try to fix some of those bugs. There are workarounds, kludges, other approaches, etc, that could perhaps get your overall problem ("How can I make an installer for my product?") fixed. This mailing list discusses them frequently, and the discussions are archived. Yes, the archives are not exactly well organized. Stephane Sudre started a FAQ -- maybe some people can help him. Please remember that there are several kinds of Apple people available to developers. There's official, full time, developer tech support (DTS) people, whom you can pay to have your problem addressed, and then there's this mailing list, which has a few Apple employee volunteers, most of whom work on installer products during the day. (I do iLife, iWork, and assorted others.) Of course, most of the people on the mailing list are software developers and "repackagers" -- those who make automated processes to configure Macs. I can't give you an answer as to why you should support the Mac platform. If you want a few clues on how to make installers, those I can share. I'll send an email shortly with a hack to turn of relocation no matter what PackageMaker thinks. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
