Thanks Andy.

The issue regarding .cfg file not being found is indeed fixed in 17, and solves 
this particular problem I found.

jpackage on MacOS - ./Contents/Contents/app/myapp.cfg file not found

[Bruno Borges]

Hi all,

Been trying to use Java 16.0.1 to produce a PKG for the fx2048 [1] game, and 
the generated app-image comes with a binary launcher that tries to load the 
.cfg file from the wrong directory.

Anyone seen this problem?

Somewhat off-topic. I hadn't noticed that PkgInfo was included on my 
applications? It used to have creator/type OSType’s needed for AppleEvent’s to 
work properly but since creator/type are pretty much out of use I thought 
PkgInfo was too?
