What is your package layout? Are you using a meta package? Can you
send me the Info.plists from the two packages and the names of these
packages?
There is a bug in 10.4 where the reason for not being able to install
doesn't percolate up to the top and display in the Target Select
panel. Either way, the installer has decided your package can't be
installed and will not let you further.

Hi, all.
My installer fails to upgrade modules on Tiger (10.4.3).
(No problem on Panther.)
In the last step of upgrade process, the 'Install' button (not
'Upgrade')
appears on the Installer's window, and clicking it raises the error
message
which tells that there is nothing to install.
Both of my old & new installers have the same CFBundleName,
and each has BundleVersions.plist described correctly.
The difference between them is that only the new has
CFBundleIdentifier
in its Info.plist (because Tiger's PackageMaker requires that).
I searched some clue in the archive, and found this post.

In my case, however, setting the unique ID doesn't solve the problem.
This issue seems to come from the fact only the new installer has
the ID.
Upgrade works fine when removing it from the new one
or adding it to the receipt of the old.
Is there any way to make my new installer work correctly on upgrade
with the old one?
Regards,
K.Mino
