    Hi friends :)

    i am currently using the qt-installer-framework on windows.

    Now i try to make it work with Mac OS.

    Installation works fine if i use the following <TargetDir> in installers config.xml:

    @homeDir@/MyApp

    But on Mac OS i do not want to install into the home directory. That is not the general way i think.

    I want to install like all apps into

    /Application

    So that after installation the user can directly start the application from Launchpad for example...

    Does somebody know how to bring qt-installer-framework to install into

    /Application
    instead of
    @home@/

    ?

    If i just replace
    @homeDir@
    with
    /Application

    it does not work :(

    Greetings
    Nando
