Oh no you
didn't. Oh yes I
did!
Well Sir,
you're the one who introduced me to
pkgutil... so this is all your fault.
Sorry about that.
But you're right... from the looks of things in posts above, the digest is gone. So how then does Snowy determine "
has been modified" now... via size and modification date??? [nah, i bet the info is still in there...
hidden somewhere... we probably just need to hold down the *option* key now to see it.

You must have missed the memo about how the stepping stones got moved. You were probably still on vacation then. (That'll teach you. Step out of the room, and we'll keep right on playing without you.) Anyway, if you want to continue walking on water after you move to snow country, look for the stepping stones in /var/db/receipts.
Snow Leopard apparently got tired of people using Leopard, Tiger, or even Jaguar versions of Disk Utility to do permissions repair. The Snow Leopard installer guts /Library/Receipts/BSD.pkg (leaving only an empty folder) so that pre-Snow Leopard versions of Disk Utility think there's no OS on the disk. /Library/Receipts/db/a.receiptdb is no longer being updated.
Since you haven't taken the icy plunge yet, I list here one of those stepping stones:
