[Scons-dev] [Scons-users] CheckPkG on OS X 10.9

[Managan, Rob]

As usual, it is never that easy. The real question is the interface to
specifying the permission bits, and any owed/group user ids. What I have
works for me but maybe not everyone.

Here is what I use. It may not work on Windows but then I suspect the
install issues on Windows are different. I do use this on the OSX.

Sounds like I should update my octal constant from recent emails!

env['INSTALL']=installFunc

env['INSTALL_GROUP']='mygroup'env['INSTALL_MODE']=0710    # leading 0
implies octal
