Remove the "move to trash?" message at the end #153

Open jonahclarsen opened 8 months ago

jonahclarsen commented 8 months ago

Is it possible to not have the installer show "Do you want to move the "[name]" Installer to the Trash?" message at the end of the installation? I would like to make an installer that doesn't show this message, and does not delete the installer.

This is not possible as this is a specific behavior of Installer.app (you don't see this happening if you use the installer(8) command line tool. For the record, this behavior only happens AFAIK when the .pkg is located in the ~/Downloads folder.

So the only way to request this feature is to create a feedback using either Apple's Feedback Assistant application or the corresponding website. Which is usually as useful as writing to /dev/null.
