This doesn't answer your question, but I would recommend against using
an installer. Let the user drag the application to /Applications (or
wherever they wish to put it) and include the framework in your
application bundle. Avoid installer programs whenever possible and
stick to simple drag and drop.
If the user is an user with admin privileges, it's a good solution. If
it's not, it's not a great experience on OS prior to 10.3 (i.e. without
FUS).
Another problem with this scenario is that you can't deploy the
application on multiple computers via Apple Remote Desktop AFAIK.
I will dare to finally add that any application drag and dropped in the
/Applications folder is set with the wrong permissions and/or owners.
