How do I prohibit installation based on current software version?

I've made an installer for some easy presets for Final Cut Pro, but they're specific to FCP5.

In Iceberg I've added a requirement in the appropriate section to require that the CFBundleVersion of /Applications/Final Cut Pro.app/ Contents/Resources/AELicensingAquaPro.bundle be at least 1.2.

Looking at an install of 4.5 that seemed like a good choice since that Bundle doesn't exist (at least on the install I tested).

But when installed on a system running an earlier build of FCP 4 it didn't stop the installer.

How can I identify the version of a target application, and if that target application doesn't exist or is an incorrect/earlier version, keep the installer from running.

The Requirements section in Iceberg looks to be the perfect place, but I can't find a unique identifier for FCP5.
