I'm sure that Packager works because I read the archives prior to post,
but I was in doubt if it would require some additional steps or other
apps installed. If I install NCU under MacOS 9 will Packager also
change the icon of my packages or is better to do it manually?

The future ability to detect Newton packages (without suffix) and also
change the default MacOS X Installer icon to a custom Devilery icon are
really great news.

Thanks for the suggestion. I will try it and post a report.
I will also copy the exactly message that is displayed when activation
fails.

More exciting news! Please take all the necessary time.
I'm sure that it will worth the wait.
