The issue is that PackageMaker is old, old. It is no longer even obtainable unless you are lucky enough to have an old copy of the Xcode dev tools. So for people who wish to build AOO under OSX, the dependency on PackageMaker is a NoGo. When Apple deprecated PackageMaker, they replaced it with a command-line suite (pkg*). Unfortunately, all versions of epm older than 4.3 have no concept of it and instead rely on PackageMaker. Sooooo it would be nice to be able to standardize on 4.3 for ALL platforms, but that means applying the 3.7-patch to 4.3... that is what I'm working on now at https://github.com/jimjag/epm/tree/aoo --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
