Apple Installer Problems

I’ve tracked down a few problems since my move to using Apple’s Installer. If you have problems please let me know. I’m currently debating between a compromise with Apple’s Installer vs. going back to my own custom installers for the plugins. Neither is exactly what I want.

Google Maps Plugin 2.7

I just posted my first update to the Google Maps Plugin in over two years! Version 2.7 supports Snow Leopard in 64-bit. Unfortunately, it drops support for 10.3.9, but Panther users can still download the previous 2.6.3 version. I’ve also replaced my home-built installer with a proper Apple installer package. Let me know if something doesn’t work as expected.

PostCheck 1.9.1

PostCheck 1.9.1 is available. It doesn’t add any new features or fix anything. But this version will run OS X 10.4 or higher and is both 32 and 64-bit compatible. Now I don’t need to maintain two separate downloads. I’ve also ditched my custom installer script in favor of using Apple’s PackageMaker to make a proper installer for the plugin. The installer still installs into your Home folder, so if you’d like it to be available for everyone that uses your computer, you’ll need to manually move the plugin from [Your Home]/Library/Address Book Plug-Ins/PostCheck.bundle to /Library/Address Book Plug-Ins.
