Rocketman Choices Packager

Utility for customising installer package choices

Choices Packager is a macOS utility that lets administrators produce customized installer packages from vendor‑supplied Apple Installer .pkg files. It follows Apple’s supported approach of using choices XML files to pre‑select components, but instead of altering the original package it creates a new wrapper package that applies the selected components during installation.

The application provides a native macOS interface where users can drag and drop a package, visually enable or disable individual components, and set the name, identifier, and version for the resulting package. It also offers the ability to export the underlying choices XML for use with other deployment tools. Building a custom package requires administrative privileges and works on macOS 10.13 or newer.

Typical uses include standardizing software deployments across an organization, stripping unnecessary components from large suites, preparing silent installers for automation, and tailoring installations for specific teams or departments. The tool is a Swift reimplementation of an earlier AppleScript project and is released as a stable, core‑macOS utility.
