site_archiver@lists.apple.com Delivered-To: installer-dev@lists.apple.com I'm building an installer essentially by hand -- using an old Python script called buildpkg.py. To create the Archive.bom file, it uses "mkbom <sourcefolder> <bompath>", and to create the PAX archive, it cd's to the <sourcefolder>, then uses "pax -w -f <archive-path> .", then invokes "gzip" on the resulting file to compress it, winding up with "Archive.pax.gz". Has been working fine for years. However, when I use this on Leopard, and then run the resulting installer, I get the following error messages: pkgExtractor[79737]: BomFatalError - cpio read error: bad file format pkgExtractor[79737]: Package Authoring Error: Package "UpLib-1.7.3.pkg" is using a deprecated archive format. Running in compatibility mode. The installer still seems to work, but I'd like to make whatever changes are necessary to make these messages disappear.
