Yes I'm using AppleScript. We originally started out using a Perl
script. However, the Perl script would not remove previous installs from
"/Users/Shared" or "/Applications" despite the fact that it supposedly
ran without error (looking at the install logs). When I would run the
Perl script from the command line it would complain about insufficient
permissions.
The Applescript will at least reliably remove the old installs.
Maybe we didn't do something correct in the Perl script?
If Applescript doesn't deal with the permissions properly, what else
would you recommend using?
Thanks again for your help!

I didn't see anything obvious in the installer log (see below). I also
looked in the console log and didn't see anything there related to the
installer. The only behavior we see is:
1) It does not remove aliases from all user accounts, it will remove
my alias just fine; no error dialogs are displayed
2) After creating the new alias in my account, it displays an apple
script error dialog stating, "The operation could not be completed
because you do not have enough access privileges."
Thanks again for any and all help!
Are you using an AppleScript to remove and create the aliases? I would
not be my right hand on privileges being handled properly in such as case.
