Hello Hannes,

I posted this already yesterday but didn't look at the size of an
attachment, so the message got slightly too big to be accepted by the
list. I apologize for the delay caused by my negligence :-(

To create the package files and the disk image I used the standard GUI
applications PackageMaker and Disk Utility supplied with MacOS X.

It would be possible to automate the packaging tasks with scripts, but I
just clicked everything together by hand, because this took almost no
time compared to the build process before ;-)

For your reference, an outline of the steps I took to create the
packages is attached to this e-mail.

In case somebody wants to reproduce this, I've packaged the staging
directory (without the huge amount of stuff copied over from /usr/local
and /usr/local/opendylan, of course) as an archive and uploaded it to
the same place as the original package to get you started:

cu,
Thomas
