Hey guys,

I just set up patchoo on a test system and got it working. Caching, prompting and installing is working fine. But when the prompt comes up it just displays the hard coded text messages. Not the description or the package filename. However if patchoo asks for installing Apple Updates, these updates get displayed at the prompt.

What am I missing? Is there any log I can check. I've already checked jamf.log. In there i can't see anything wrong...

Thanks for your help.

Lenny

BTW: I use the fork of loceee

Just found out, that if I set the info field as described in the documentation, I'll get the title displayed:

Whatever name you enter into Info will be presented to the user.

However, the other part of the documentation does not work:

If you don't fill the info metadata, patchoo will use the pkgname, less the extension. eg. VLC-2.1.4
