We currently build our mac installer as a pkg file using productbuild --component (as per the following post: Mac app store productbuild).
This works wonderfully, but I also wish to add a license file to this installer.
With packagemaker, you can specify the option --resources [path_to_resources_file]. If you put a License.txt in the specified resources folder, the installer magically includes a license step.
Whilst productbuild's man page describes a --resources option too, in practice this does not appear to work with the --component option. It just seems to ignore the option altogether.
According to the productbuild man page, the --component option apparently only takes a product definition plist (I had a look through the plist options and none seemed to apply to a license file), a component, an optional install path and an output path. Although the --sign option also works.
Does anyone know whether it is possible (and if so, how) to include a license file for the installer when using productbuild --component?
Thanks in advance.
