Choices in packagemaker


I'm currently making an installer with packagemaker.

I've created my project and I created multiple choices. Choice 1 always needs to be installed but there also needs to be chosen between 6 other choices.

So I would like to configure that you can only click "Continue" when 2 choices are active.

If i place the payload of choice 1 in all the other payloads, the package will be very big. Maybe you know a requirement that if 1 other choice is checked, choice 1 will be checked automaticaly? I've tried everything this weekend but I can't find the solution.


Solution

  • PackageMaker is deprecated. From own experience I can only recommend to use the new tools pkgbuild, productbuild, and pkgutil.

    I recommend to take a look at iTunes Installers Distribution.xml, that should give you a glue on how to do dependencies,
