I have never used PackageMaker's CLI tool either, but I've poked around it enough and read enough threads about frustration that I know the basics of it. I plan on revising those comments and others in the near future, I'll probably try to work up some test cases for both PM and Iceberg to tinker with the command line building stuff.

In Terminal it didn't need a path, but in Automator it did, so when I replaced 'freeze MyInstaller.packproj' with '/usr/local/bin/freeze MyInstaller.packproj', it worked. There are two optional flags: -v, verbose; -d, scratch folder - supply the folder as the argument, presumably. Re. the command-line version, freeze: it worked fine for me.
