The program still runs and now the bundle is down to 7.3MB. How can I verify nothing else is required to run on another system other than a test? Is there something like the otool -L command?

I'm not getting this at all. When run, the binary created by macpack creates the bin subdirectory inside Contents/Resources with a symbolic link to /usr/bin/mono on each run. I don't understand how this is supposed to be working on systems without mono installed, nor why the contents of the bundle need modification, which prevents running the bundle installed in /Applications by a non admin user due to permission denied messages trying to update the bundle.

I've only found sparse docs at http://www.mono-project.com/Guide:Running_Mono_Applications mentioning basic usage and running the macpack tool from commandline doesn't show any other possibly useful switches to change this behaviour.

Is macpack not ready to be used yet?
