If you know the identifier of the security update (I don't know it off hand) you can use:

my.target.receiptForIdentifier()

This will return an object representing the receipt (with the properties identifier and version).

Question:

If I am running the following code in a distribution package choice’s scripts:

(system.sysctl('hw.machine') == 'i386' && system.files.fileExistsAtPath('/Library/Receipts/ SecUpd2006-004Intel.pkg') == false) && my.choice.selected

Which is intended to determine if the machine is an intel based system and already has SecUpd2006-004Intel.pkg installed, will system.files.fileExistsAtPath check for that file on the system I am booted to or on the target? If it is on the System Disk, is there a way to check the target instead?

Thanks,
Sean
