This document discusses creating a MacOS X package (a .pkg file in a .dmg disk image) from scratch. This is the process that the Amanda team follows to create a new package. Unfortunately, Apple's packaging applications are not scriptable -- these instructions must be followed manually.

Prerequisites

You will need:

* XCode (download the latest version from Apple at http://developer.apple.com/tools/xcode/)
* autotools (use Fink or DarwinPorts, or install them manually)

Compile

Amanda should be compiled
