Corrupt(?) InstaDMG log files

[Per Olofsson]

I’m running InstaDMG svn 212 on Mac OS X Server 10.5 inside VMware Fusion (as building 10.5 images doesn’t work on my 10.6 workstation), and the InstaDMG log files look like this:

		installer[66165]: 	Determining files to install 
ivate/tmp/createUser_admin.pkg.66165cqf2qD" 
admg/./InstallerFiles/CustomPKG/9/createUser_admin.pkg

7) already exists.

e) onto the cached image (./Caches/BaseImageCache/798C76AE_408eb97f5e3fb2679e551cd2e5f07a3d1283738e.dmg)

It runs fine, but as one of my packages is acting up I’m having a hard time debugging it…

This problem disappears if I log to a local disk instead. Unfortunately setting the log dir with -l doesn’t work (LOG_FILE and PKG_LOG are set before LOG_FOLDER is redefined), but I included a patch in the bug report (bug id 26).
