Re: Installing to user documents folder
Unfortunately, usually, yes as the domain option affects every package inside the distribution. On Fri, Apr 20, 2012 at 9:59 AM, Andrew Peckover <apeckover@pgmusic.com> wrote:
Thanks for your reply. I realize what the issue is now.
I have one package that I want to install on the volume selected by the user, and another that I want to install in the user's home directory. (In the same distribution).
Does this require installing the files to a temporary folder and moving them with a script?

Assuming by OS 4, you mean Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger), you have access to the domain installation options.
You will need to make sure you're building a distribution.
In the Distribution > Configuration pane, check the "User home directory" "Install Destination" option and uncheck the "Volume selected by user" option.
Reminder: everything from this distribution will be installed in ~/… .

Hi,
I'm using PackageMaker 3.0.3, and am targetting OS 4 and higher. I'd like to install a package to the user's "Documents" or "Library" folder. What is the best way to do this?
