So what you are saying is to get the path to the plugin's bundle, then
manually munge it to get the full path to the containing .mpkg, then use
bundleWithPath to make a new NSBundle to the .mpkg itself? I am assuming
the upshot here is that I have to do some path manipulation myself in
order to get at the .mpkg's bundle and that there is no way to get it
directly with any NSBundle call from within the plugin.
I've used you suggestion and done:

Why wouldn't it work (if you replace Class with class)?
You probably have at least one subclass of the Installer Plugins
classes. If you run this method on an instance of this subclass, you
will get the NSBundle of the plugin.
Then you would just have to build the path of the metapackage "bundle"
from the path of the plugin bundle (+[NSBundle bundleWithPath:]).

That would be a neat trick but in this case it won't work because self
is an InstallerPane which is a member of an InstallerSection which is
an NSView in the class object.
Thanks,

I see the InstallerSection class has a -bundle method but it appears
to return the plugin's bundle, not the bundle of the .mpkg itself.
This also doesn't seem to be mentioned in Software Delivery Guide.
A useful NSBundle trick for plugins everywhere:
[NSBundle bundleForClass:[self Class]]
This should find you the bundle that whatever class you're in came from.
