packager won't pick up Script and Launch from *.qpg

I’m trying to make “packager” recognize the Launch Menu setups
in unattended mode, but whatever written in *.qpg
won’t be picked up.

Tried <QPG:PackageFilter type=“core”> etc etc but no banana.
(Strangely some other setups are picked up)

Do I have to manually answer the Launch spec every time?

kabe
package.qpg excerpt follows:

QPG:Generation
QPG:Values
QPG:PackageFilter
QPM:PackageManifest

<QPM:ProductInstallationProcedure xmlmultiple=“true”>

<QPM:Script xmlmultiple=“true”>
QPM:ScriptName/usr/photon/bin/launchmenu_notify</QPM:ScriptName>
QPM:ScriptTimingPost</QPM:ScriptTiming>
QPM:ScriptTypeUse</QPM:ScriptType>
</QPM:Script>

<QPM:Script xmlmultiple=“true”>
QPM:ScriptName/usr/photon/bin/launchmenu_notify</QPM:ScriptName>
QPM:ScriptTimingPost</QPM:ScriptTiming>
QPM:ScriptTypeUnuse</QPM:ScriptType>
</QPM:Script>
</QPM:ProductInstallationProcedure>
</QPM:PackageManifest>

<QPM:Launch name=“mnews” xmlmultiple=“true”>
<QPM:String name=“Topic” value=“Application/Internet” xmlmultiple=“true”/>
<QPM:String name=“Command” value=“pterm mnews” xmlmultiple=“true”/>
<QPM:String name=“Icon” value="/usr/share/icons/topics/news_newspaper.gif" xmlmultiple=“true”/>
</QPM:Launch>

</QPG:PackageFilter>

</QPG:Values>
</QPG:Generation>

Could you please post the entire QPG file for me to check? Maybe even post
the QPM files that were generated by packager? You can send directly to me
if you prefer not to post this information.

One thing I did notice is that the
QPM:ProductInstallationProcedure
line should not have xmlmultiple=“true” as you want the block to be merged
into the existing InstallationProcedure block.

Self followup: I goofed.

Pushing with

packager -u -m packager.qpg DESTDIR

seemed to be plain wrong for advanced packaging.

packager -u packager.qpg

picked 'em up correctly, smooth and clear.

(Specifying only *.qpr isn’t mentioned the help pages,
but is in “use packager” output.
Request help document update.)

Yes, yes, this was already mentioned in the tech articles
