Re: Display Package Bundles as Regular Directories??
site_archiver@lists.apple.com Delivered-To: installer-dev@lists.apple.com Thank you, everyone very much for your help. Since I need these for screenshots, not to actually work, I came up with an alternative idea that I may try first. This is something akin to the Hollywood trick of substituting mashed potatoes for ice cream, since ice cream melts and mashed potatoes don't. In this case, I think I'll just put the package contents inside of a standard folder, copy the package icon from a package to this folder, and take my screen shots. With the package icon applied to the normal folder and if I name it xyz.pkg.nnn and tell finder to hide the suffix, it should look like a package for the screen shot. If that doesn't work, I'll use the great suggestions you guys made for doing it with a command line. Best Wishes, Paul On Dec 9, 2010, at 7:29 AM, Per Olofsson wrote:

Would listing the hierarchy in a text format help? In that case, using 'find' on the command line may be easier than trying to muck with finder views.
This won't show you the actual payload files. For flat packages you can use:
pkgutil --payload-files flat.pkg
For bundle packages you can use:
lsbom bundle.pkg/Contents/Archive.bom
For bundle mpkgs there's no easy way that I know of.
