InstaDMG 1.5rc1 + iTunes 9.0.1 postinstall script failure #27

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Load latest Apple Updates: specifically the iTunes 9.0.1 update
2. use 1.5rc1 to build in chroot

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The AppleMobileDeviceSupport.pkg portion of the new iTunes installer does not 
complete the postinstall script which installs the 
"_usbmuxd" user. This results in the finished system's console being flooded 
with the following errors:

Sep 28 13:45:55 myhost com.apple.launchd[1] (com.apple.usbmuxd[449]): 
getpwnam("_usbmuxd") failed
Sep 28 13:45:55 myhost com.apple.launchd[1] (com.apple.usbmuxd[449]): Exited 
with exit code: 1
Sep 28 13:45:55 myhost com.apple.launchd[1] (com.apple.usbmuxd): Throttling 
respawn: Will start in 10 seconds

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.5rc1 + 10.5.8 to perform the builds in chroot env.
Building 10.5.8 with a 10.5.6 retail disk.

Please provide any additional information below.
It looks as thought the postinstall script for this portion of the package 
fails. Found some further info on the AFP548 site (other users 
with the same problem).

There was speculation that the command which supplies a password to the user 
("*") is actually globbing the working directory 
instead.

I am marking this as closed. I don't remember us making any changes, but with 
iTunes 9.0.x being in vogue now 
I think they have solved it for us.
