Spotify Mac executable modes in 1.0.50 vs. 1.0.49

	# In 1.0.50, no user besides the one who installed Spotify will be able to execute it. This means either other users on the system,
	# or, if Spotify was deployed using any mass-deployment tool or installer package, and is owned by the root user, Spotify will not
	# launch for anyone.

Repackage the Sibelius 7.5 sounds into a standard package

	#!/bin/sh -eu
	#
	# Run the Sibelius 7.5 sounds installer, which will unpack sample data as well as some metadata, all into
	# a 'Sibelius Sounds' directory. SOUNDS_SRC in this script points to this directory by default, but
	# alternatively one could back up the Sibelius Sounds directory to a server and then change SOUNDS_SRC to
	# that location.
	#
	# Note that 'Sibelius Sounds' is the top-level directory, and it contains another directory within with
	# the same name (alongside 'Libraries').

Simple Bash script that repackages and copies Unity 3d 5 packages to a Munki repo

	#!/bin/bash -eu

	# This script takes a directory containing flat packages. It expands
	# them all, uses `xmlstarlet` to edit pkg-info 'version' attribute
	# to the one given by VERSION, and flattens them back, saving them
	# as "pkgname-VERSION.pkg"
