The bug or rfe here is that we should

It is not clear to me how ptmatlab.dll got over to c:/Windows/System32.
kepler/lib/cplib.sh contains:
--start--
#!/bin/sh                                                                       
mkdir ~/lib
cp "$INSTALL_PATH"/lib/libproj.0.dylib ~/lib/
cp "$INSTALL_PATH"/lib/libgeos_c.1.dylib ~/lib/
cp "$INSTALL_PATH"/lib/libgeos.2.dylib ~/lib/
cp "$INSTALL_PATH"/lib/libgdal.1.dylib ~/lib/
cp "$INSTALL_PATH"/lib/libexpat.1.dylib ~/lib/
chmod +x "$INSTALL_PATH"/kepler.sh
chmod +x "$INSTALL_PATH"/kepler.app/Contents/MacOS/JavaApplicationStub
--end--

        * installer/build/install.xml: Updated the Izpack configuration
        file to parse a Windows batch file to move dlls to a location where
        they can be found by the OS (batch file name is 'cplibs.bat' - file
        is set to be executed during installation)

2008-01-26 10:32  higgins

        * lib/cplibs.bat: batch file to copy windows dlls to location where
        they will be located

There is some email about c:/Windows/System32 from Dan Higgins at
