Thank you, Rainer! Your patch allowed the pkg/mpkg commands to work. I do notice that the owner of certain files has changed from macports to root, however. I’ll test deploying the installer and see if the result works OK. I’ll try producing an mdmg, as well. If those work out OK, is this something that would be an acceptable change to base for distribution?
