I’ve just upgraded to Leopard, and PackageMaker v3.0.1. I see that Apple have introduced a database for installer packages in \Library \Receipts. I can’t seem to find much info or documentation about this. Test installers I’ve created with the new PackageMaker end up as a .pkg bundle in \Library\Receipts, like they used to on Tiger. Using pkgutil to display the contents of the database shows no sign of my test packages. First question I guess is this – Does anyone know of any useful documentation or information source for this installer package database? Second question(s) – How to make an installer package integrate with the database? I’ve seen references to ‘flat packages’ here and there – is this what it needs?
