Well I can see loads of log lines in the build that look like it is doing that..

e.g.

...
../../install-sh -o root -g wheel -m 644 
build/release/pmchart.app/Contents/PkgInfo 
/Applications/pmchart.app/Contents/PkgInfo
../../install-sh -o root -g wheel -m 644 pmchart.info 
/Applications/pmchart.app/Contents/Info.plist
../../install-sh -o root -g wheel -m 755 -d 
/Applications/pmchart.app/Contents/MacOS
...

And indeed if you look at src/pmchart/GNUMakefile:

ifeq ($(WINDOW),mac)
PKG_MAC_DIR = /Applications/$(COMMAND).app/Contents


That seems fairly compelling that it's going to try to do something there.


Incidentally after I manually removed what looks like an old 
/Applications/pmchart.app when I build now nothing turns up here though, still 
trying to work out WTF is happening.
