An alternative to PackageMaker is Iceberg. I use this to create packages with remote access over an ssh connection (no gui). Advantages:

  • it has a command line utility called 'freeze' to create the packages from the command line, so that package building can be automated.
  • package file description is in xml format, so that it can be edited with any text editor.
