PackageInstaller unable to open Subversion.pkg file from haiku-os.org

[scottmc]

PackageInstaller not able to open the Subversion .pkg file on Haiku-os.org. Seems this would be a requirement for someone to be able to set up a build system on Haiku. ;) Screenshot attached.

Worked fine for me - just launch PackageInstaller (I navigated to the apps dir and launched it by double-clicking) and then use the open dialog to launch the subversion package. Then you just click on the Subversion banner that shows in the middle of the screeen.

You're right, that worked. So maybe this isn't a bug, or maybe the bug is that PackageInstaller doesn't work correctly from the commandline?

Successful package install here

What we can definitely agree on is that it should just work by double clicking the package :-)

BTW, I was able to make it work from the commandline by qualifying the path to the package as such:

$ PackageInstaller ./Subversion-1.1.3.pkg

Same thing happens to me on real hardware with hrev24609.

Interesting. I will look into this issue as soon as possible, since it's more or less my responsibility ;-) If, of course, there are no objections.

This seems to be fixed with recent builds, after hrev24752 or so. Can anyone else confirm?

[scottmc]

I checked this again tonight with some old package files and just double clicking the pkg file PackageInstaller opened them up as expected. Seems this one can be closed.

Thanks for checking!

I also was not able to reproduce the bug in the recent builds. Nice to see it's the same for someone else too. Thanks.
