INTRODUCTION

The aim of this module is to provide a framework for generating standard OS X installation packages for Privoxy, covering all supported versions of OS X (see below for details of coverage).

Please refer to "OS X Package Builder HOWTO.txt" for full instructions.


SUPPORTED PLATFORMS

Theoretically this framework can create installer packages for OS X from versions 10.3 to 10.8 (and higher) inclusive, and for all three processor architectures on which OS X is supported (PowerPC, Intel x86 and Intel x86_64). Packages have so far been tested on the following platforms:

10.7 x86_64
10.6 x86_64 & x86
10.5 x86_64, x86 & PPC
10.4 x86 & PPC


ATTRIBUTION

This module is based on the previous work done by Mark Miller (macsetup module) and David Schmidt & John Daniels (osxsetup module), to whom I am indebted. Thanks also to Fabian Keil for occasional technical and significant licensing guidance, and to Andrew Jones, Andreas Rutkauskas, Julien Joubert and Lizik Grelier for testing.
