We have finally switched from using PackageMaker and creating a bundled package installer to using Stephane Sudre's Package program to create a flat package installer. I have chosen Relocatable in the Settings for the package but when we get to the list of volumes, I can only choose the volume. Previously, with bundled package installers created with PackageMaker, I could select the volume and a Choose Folder button would appear to allow us to change where our application is installed (from the /Applications default).

Is there something else I must select in Packages or is choosing a different folder on a volume no longer allowed with a flat package installer?

I do not have experience with Packages (we create our installer manually), however I do know modern flat packages can install onto other volumes, and you can activate the "relocate" feature, which allows files (bundles, technically) to be installed during an upgrade install to follow to where a user may have previously moved them. So, you could install an app, move the app manually, and when you reinstall, the new copy would overwrite the copy you moved, rather than putting the new one in the original location. I have not seen any documentation for the ability to install apps to a specific folder, although I may have just missed it. - Andrew Keller _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
