This contains pmsp which should be upgraded to a pmproj. PackageMaker.app will do this for you. The package maker project is fairly self-explanatory. The "Contents Root" should probably be changed to a relative path. One thing to take in consideration is that there is a "postflight" and "postinstall" scripts that get ran at the appropriate time during the install. They will may be found in the "SpamBayesPkg 0.5/ SpamBayes/Package_resources" directory. Installer.app knows to run these because of how they are named. The install simply copies the files from what is found in "SpamBayes/ Package_contents/" to "/". So the three big items that get installed are: /Library/StartupItems/SpamBayes /Library/Python/2.3 /Library/SpamBayes/ The postinstall script adds SPAMBAYES=-YES- to the /etc/hostconfig The postflight script starts SpamBayes (simulating the way this will be done during boot using SystemStarter) and opens the url http:// localhost:8880, presumably where SpamBayes runs.. > > The binary package here: > > http://www.s-j-t.co.uk/SpamBayes/SpamBayesPackage.pkg.tgz > > won't untar for me. It complains about a "lone zero block at 678". I get the same error. Must be corrupt.
