Just wanted to mention that order is extremely important with package creation. If you have @cwd /foo/bar; @srcdir /bar/foo your files will be picked up from /bar/foo. If you have @srcdir /bar/foo; @cwd /foo/bar your files will be picked up from /foo/bar. @cwd changes the directory pointer for both creation and extraction, and so if you have @cwd AFTER @srcdir the @srcdir command effectively gets over-written.


An experiment using just @srcdir and @dstdir might be worthwhile...
