With a relocatable package, you can.

Unfortunately packages that are relocatable still try to put the receipt in /Library/Receipts, and they therefore fail on any non-administrator account.

The problem is not the location of the install, but only the attempt to put the receipt in /Library/Receipts. 

Any other way around this?

Thanks.

-Adam
