PackageMaker is basically a GUI interface to pax, so it might be possible to create a Mac OS X installer package with command line tools. You would have to look at the file layout of a package by using PackageMaker first or by looking at an existing package. I didn't try this, it is just an idea.


Another important remark about making a package: always make sure all files you add to a package are owned by root/wheel (or root/admin). You don't want a random user on the target system, who happens to have the same UID as you do, to be able to overwrite those files.

Thanks for the hints.

I found these links:
http://s.sudre.free.fr/Stuff/PackageMaker_Howto.html
http://s.sudre.free.fr/Software/Iceberg.html

Both tools seem to be able to build a package from the command line
(maybe not create a new package script). For my purposes that would be good enough.

Vincent.
