Ok... I'm making a meta package because I can't think of another way

for Panther. Since the Panther version cannot run in Jag. The problem
is I cannot seem to get the installer app in Jag to respect the
preflight file . does the preflight file need to be named:
myApp.preflight or just preflight?
As described at the following URL:
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/DeveloperTools/Conceptual/
SoftwareDistribution/index.html
the file needs to be named 'preflight'.
the jag installer app is happy to let me install software that it
should be refusing to let me use
second. Is there a better way to get the installer to pick one or the
other based on the os?
There would be if there was a flag in the PackageMaker format allowing
to define a .pkg as optional from a VolumeCheck (or the new check
mechanism) point of view.
IMHO, you should instead make 2 installers (if an installer is really
needed and just drag and dropping the application is not enough). Just
set a specific name or a background picture to explain which one to
install.
