I'm trying to automate the build of our installer using PackageMaker's command line interface and have run into an odd behavior. When building a package from the command line using a .pmproj file, PackageMaker fails to build if the "Root" directory is set to a relative path inside the project although the PackageMaker command is executed from the directory containing the .pmproj project. The following is an example of the error: prompt$ /Developer/Applications/Utilities/PackageMaker.app/Contents/ MacOS/PackageMaker -build -proj "./myPackage.pmproj" -p "./ myPackage.pkg" -v However, if I set the "Root" directory to an absolute path using the PackageMaker GUI I can build the project from the command line just fine. Does anyone have an idea for a work around? I could of course make a script that builds the packages without a .pmproj project file, however, our package is in a state of flux so I would really like to preserve the ability to alter the installer with a GUI.
