So here's what I've pieced together (none of this seems to be explicitly stated anywhere at all.) Please correct me if I've got any of this wrong.
* Flat packages on their own are considerably less capable than bundle packages. * The capabilities mostly come back (and you get a bunch of new ones) if you build a Distribution containing your package. * There is no (documented) way to get packagemaker to create a distribution from the command line. * You can however create a distribution from a flat package using productbuild. * productbuild is only available on 10.6+. So my conclusion is that we should create a Distribution file and run productbuild after generating an intermediate flat package, but only on 10.6+. - Josh _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-dev
