Distribution script based packages (10.4 and later) don't execute
InstallationCheck scripts without a lot of manual tweaking. They are
a potential security vulnerability.
Your installation check logic should be written as a JavaScript
function and embedded in the distribution script.
There used to be some minimal documentation (the 10.4 installer
release note) about this online; I'm working to have it restored soon.

Hi,
I'm trying to make a package that executes an InstallationCheck
script. I can build a package just fine but when I install the
package the InstallationCheck script doesn't get called. I'm
working with the latest and greatest PackageMaker (3.0.1) from the
command line on 10.5.1.
Here's the command line I'm using:
/Developer/usr/bin/packagemaker
--root PackageRoot
--out Quux.pkg
--version 1.2.3
--title Quux
--scripts scripts/
--id com.quux.pkg
--target 10.5
--root-volume-only
The InstallationCheck script I'm trying to run is in the scripts
directory. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks,
John
