I had the same issue when I was trying to include Xcode 3 in my Leopard upgrade NetInstall set. SIU does not like metapackages. I haven’t gotten around to automating the Xcode install, so I just do it after the reboot. It’s not too inconvenient (yet), since I’m only trickling Leopard out at the moment.
Yeah, I can get iLife on an instaDMG workflow fine, but the problem there is that it creates another image to deploy, not a networked leopard installer disc that I can use to upgrade or archive and install. If I used parts of the InstaDMG script, I could use SIU to create a netinstall of the leopard installer, then target disk mode the newly updated machine and then run iLife installer. Or I could house the iLife installer on a file share. Or use ARD to do it, but these all require another step that I have to start, hence defeating the automation part that I'm gunning for.
I suppose I could try to script it so the updated machine, at first boot, downloads and installs the iLife package, but, isn't that what SIU is for!
A little more info, I can use other packages I created, like firefox, to install with the SIU, but why not iLife?? I guess I could re-package it, but come on, where is the fun in that!
