Hi Bruce, I'm not sure why Package Manager is having trouble with your filenames/ directories.. I'll try to see if I can figure that out, however I do know it's possible to have PackageManager run scripts after the files are extracted. Maybe a little python script could just "fix things up" afterwards. I'll try to look into that as well. -steve On Mar 29, 2010, at 9:23 PM, Bruce Sherwood wrote: > I'm not working from a command line; I have no experience with that. > I'm > using PackageMaker.
