Hi,
thanks for developing PsyncX and sharing it with the community.
I'm under the impression that there is a bug with the permissions
of the PsyncX.pkg 2.1.1 installed items in Panther (which does not
interfere with the functionality of the program, though): all
installed items belong to user:unknown, also those installed in /
usr/bin and /usr/share/bin (btw, why are the binaries installed in
both locations?). Shouldn't they belong to root:wheel instead?
Anyway, as a consequence the permissions of the parent
directories are also scurried up.
Fixing permission (diskutil repairPermissions) only fixes parent
directories, so I believe the problem is with the pkg itself.
