The facter 1.6.18 tarball has many issues. First, the ext/osx/createpackage.sh script still uses packagemaker, which is deprecated. And even if it used that, there are a few references to files in the now-deleted conf/osx/ directory. So it''s pretty difficult to create a Mac pkg from this, but after some tweaking of the createpackage.sh script, I managed to do it! I ran the package it created, a...

I've paraphrased the OS X installer developer's comments: there's a bug in Installer that is preventing the archive from working right. Below is the fix for the problem. First (obviously) run the installer. Since the executables are in the archive.pax.gz file in the installer package, first do a "show package contents" on the package file, then unstuff the enclosed

These features are actually provided by a preferred OS X method -- packages. They are created by /Developer/Applications/Utilities/PackageMaker.app and can have multiple pre- and post- install scripts attached to the them. It wouldn't be hard to put an installer together.

Now that I've got the recent build of Icecast running (thanks everyone), I'm wondering about an OS X installer. Icecast would be even more palatable to the less-techy OSX users if there were an installer for the binary. As long as the installer checked for the dependent libs, everything would be straight forward. Has this been discussed before? Jaime Magiera University of Michigan

I''m on Mac OSX and I''m about to rip my hair out over how hard it is to install rails. I''ve installed rubygems and am typing "ruby setup.rb" in the command line and get "No such file or directory." I''ve never had to use command lines before so this is alien to me. Can''t they just make installation GUI-based for non-geeks like
