Summary

0000622: Create scripts/process to generate release binary installer for Mac OS X

Description

In DMG or PKG format. I can assist with this as I have one to test on, though I don't have time to do it all from scratch. Perhaps install a hackintosh for testing?

Additional Information

The DMG stuff is pretty easy, the trick will be providing a statically linked version, or including runtime deps from macports with the installer.

The done thing is a folder in the image that is self contained. You drop it in the apps dir and it just works. The macports build process doesn't quite work like that, though. Again, I can help, but I can't do the homework and scripts etc.
