CFBundleVersion vs CFBundleShortVersionString

[Galen Richards]

It appears that some packages do not have the "CFBundleShortVersionString" attribute in Info.plist. Instead they have "CFBundleVersion". I'm not a Python expert but I'm guessing a simple if statement inside AppDmgVersioner or PlistReader would fix the issue.

Yes, one of the reasons PlistReader (and AppDmgVersioner, Versioner) exists is to extract versions out of alternate Info.plist keys.

I've just updated the Dropbox.pkg recipe as an example:

If you have more, feel free to submit an issue or pull request. The beauty of recipes is that you needn't be a Python expert to write or fix them.

Ah excellent, thank you. I didn't notice the plist_keys option.
