AutoDMG v1.7.3

published 19 Dec 2016

This week I’ve rounded up some bugfixes together with a few minor new features. First off, after a successful build you’ll find a few machine parsable statements in the log, to help people who automate builds. You’ll also see a warning if the build number changes, as it does these days when you install a security update:

15 december 2016 11:35:55 GMT−5  Build success: OUTPUT_PATH='/Users/Shared/osx_updated_161216-10.11.6-15G31.hfs.dmg'
15 december 2016 11:35:55 GMT−5  Build success: OUTPUT_OSNAME='Mac OS X'
15 december 2016 11:35:55 GMT−5  Build success: OUTPUT_OSVERSION='10.11.6'
15 december 2016 11:35:55 GMT−5  Build success: OUTPUT_OSBUILD='15G1212'
15 december 2016 11:35:55 GMT−5  Build success: Notice: OS version changed from Mac OS X 10.11.6 15G31 to Mac OS X 10.11.6 15G1212

Secondly I’ve added a deprecation warning if you’re building an OS that is no longer supported by Apple, as is the case now with 10.9. This also means that I will remove support for it in AutoDMG in the not too distant future, most likely in the next major release.

Full changelog:

You’ll find the download on the AutoDMG releases page. If you have questions or need help, you can join us in #autodmg on Slack MacAdmins (but please check the documentation and especially the FAQ first).
