In the AmigaOS4.1 cd and updates started using the new 'Installation Utility' which runs a python for the install content. I've started working on building an install script for this utility only to realize it is currently not available for OS4.0 users. So far it seems to crash on OS4.0 when copying files using the AddPackage.

Would it be possible to make it a public download (eg Os4depot) or allow it to be included in distributions just like the old commodore installer.

Installation Utility is implemented using Python which in turn uses shared objects which did not work correctly until 4.1.

I suggest you use the good old Installer on 4.0 to avoid the dependency issues.

True, thanks for the info. I'll do some more testing with my different installations. So far it seems just the AddPackage/page(INSTALL), things like License/Readme/GUI pages are working fine. I'll just resort to os.system copy functions for OS4.0 usage.
