Hi,
I've started to understand a little bit more about how
to generate .dmg archives on OS X. So I coded this into
a simple script which is very much beta, but some of you
might want to test and/or improve that. It's currently
here:
http://python.net/~gherman/projects/buildpkg/builddmg.dmg
This is a 72 KB file generated with builddmg.py contained
inside. ;-)
I'm not sure yet if it should merge one day with my other
script named buildpkg or not... Eventually all this should
go into distutils, but that hasn't reached a state where
I could understand how to extend it. ;-)
Feedback is welcome, especially on how to use the "really"
needed maximum archive size in blocks and on how to get
rid off the nasty messages by hdiutil.
Regards,
Dinu
