Hi there,
I’ve been trying to incorporate both into my InstaDMG images and was wondering–Are you putting them in the AppleUpdates (now BaseUpdates!) or in the customPkg folder?
Does it really matter?
Also as a side note, I built a tiger image on a ppc platform and accidentally included the safari 3.1.2 universal (not PPC) update. Although it did install on the image and runs properly, software update is totally confused. It still says that the 3.1.2 update is needed. I’m switching over and creating a build w/the ppc update. Hopefully that should take care of things.
Just a heads up!

Poking at Josh’s post when he mentioned the change:

BaseUpdates looks to be any update required to make the OS installed from the DVD image (the one you provided in the “BaseOS” folder) current. You may have a slightly different set of BaseUpdates than the next person. For example, if you are using an installation DVD that has OEM versions of iLife, iLife updates would be BaseUpdates. If you’re using a retail DVD (which doesn’t include iLife), iLife installers and updates would be CustomPKGs.
Additional software beyond the BaseOS would be in CustomPKG. Also, any handmade packages should be in the CustomPKG directory as well.

Sure enough… I read through the boards but just glossed over that entry. I really didn’t put 2 and 2 together, as my moving to 1.4b2 was just an automatic reaction–it was there, so I upgraded.
So then, as both apps are included on the base installation, so I’ll put them in baseUpdates…
Until someone tells me I’m an idiot for doing it!
