Re: problems building a Mac package

[fortepianissimo]

Thanks Steven - I prefer building a binary package
just in case I want to re-install a backup version in
the future.

I just updated my local copy via CVS and re-built it.
The package now build fine, but when I tried to
install it, the title of the installer window is
something like address@hidden, and all the texts/licence
agreement etc. is empty. I got "the package has
errors" in the end and the installer then quitted.
Maybe there's still some bug in make-package?

Thanks again.
