[PD-dev] pd osx brew-cask permissions error

[me.grimm]

yeah im pulling pd directly from your website using the cask i made. so
then it would be easy to change the version in the cask when you make a new
release and pulling right from your site. so permissions changes would be
good.

i think this is more useful in lab environments where the system admin has
to install/upgrade on multiple machines. the brew-cask system is pretty
great. i just did a clean os install on a new had drive and reinstalled all
my software in this manner and noticed pd was absent (pd-extended is a cask
but as we all know its getting outdated).

heres what im doing:

cask :v1 => 'pd' do
  version '0.46-5'
  sha256 'ba9fba46b783ac9f5a83e3bc19612241fe5577b2a38401fc08568dd2ca71d593'

  url "http://msp.ucsd.edu/Software/pd-#{version}-64bit.mac.tar.gz"
  name 'Pd'
  homepage 'http://msp.ucsd.edu/software.html'
  license :bsd

  app 'Pd-0.46-5-64bit.app'

  uninstall_preflight do
    system '/bin/chmod', '-R', '--', 'u+w',
"#{staged_path}/Pd-0.46-5-64bit.app"
  end
end



cheers
