It's because of the compression used to recreate the archive.
I've never checked the size if the recreated files ... For CompatibilityUpdateforQT755.pkg after using another compression 8,5 ---> 4,1 MB.

EDIT: I've fixed the compression. Every patched files will be 280Ko bigger than the original due to the new icon.

Patcher 0.31 Auto Update Delete-O-Thon

I am not sure what happened but I had the 0.30 Patcher in my Apps folder and it just prompted for an update. So I figured Id give it a try. When I did this I noticed the icon for my apps folder in my dock start cycling through apps. So I check and I watched as all my apps disappeared including utilities. I Force Quit the patcher and got an Applescript error that was extremely long with each line saying

rm "one of my apps"
rm "another of my apps"
..

Im sorry to not have saved the log but I was a bit jolted. I am in the process of replacing the apps folder with the one from my backup drive. If that doesn't work ill just restore the entire drive from the image.

Nothing else was running and the computer had been on for about an hour. So my guess is that it had something to do with me having the patcher in the apps folder and then the update wanting to rm the patcher and replace it with the update?

Is this something that anyone else has experienced? Or should I be looking for a different reason?

I in no way want to discourage anyone from using this app or zeph's asu as they are both wonderful apps. I am personally just a bit scared of the auto updater.

You will not be able to update AMD Patcher 0.3 with its update function because of a HUGE bug with 0.3 which delete everything in the folder where AMD Patcher.app is located instead of only the app.
That should answer what happened to you.

Ha

Yeah that should teach me to check the forums before I take the plunge. Its no biggie as I subscribe to the school of BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP.

thats a good school. Hope you get all A's

Glad to hear that you won't be set back too much. This is a big BIG reason I am an advocate of being a part of this forum, whether it is to ask a question or to give help where it is needed, you are pretty much guaranteed to learn something new or have that [DOH!] moment.

Thank you, Z, for all the fantastic work you've put into the Patcher, and your continual upgrading!

Does anyone know if there are problems patching Xcode?

AMD Patcher 0.32

Release date : Not now

ChangeLog

- Change the way icon of package is modified (before 570KB, now 280KB)

- Package Compression corrected. Now every package whose content has not been
changed (kexts added or removed ... etc) should be 280KB bigger than the original package.
(Because of the new icon)

- Fixed an issue while dropping file and folder whose name contains characters like ", ', &, (, ) ... etc

- You can now drop nested folders (It still need to be optimized. Don't hope to drop a whole Volume or mounted disk image on it ... unless you are very patient ! I've just tried with my Applications folder (of a size of 3.19 GB, 716 elements and multiple subfolders) and it tooks 52s to determine all candidate files and fill the table)

- ListOfNonSupportedFiles has been removed as well as the check to see if the file is non supported and the message that indicates that some files you dropped are not supported. From now only files which type is defined in AMD Patcher will be dropped on the table.

More to come ...

PS: Don't hesitate to give me ideas if I miss a feature that seems important to you.

can someone upload the 0.31 somewhere else instead of easy-share and rapidshare?
