Since I got asked (more than once) about using postUPPGRADE scripts (not just postinstall), I assumed there was some bug in packagemaker that mean it was supporting those as a workaround for not supporting postINSTALL scripts.

So, I had specified a postinstall script (per 10.5 - normal) as well as a directory containing a scripts "postupgrade". Of course, I tried builgind and installing packages with and without that option - nothing seemed to work.

10.5

We have both postinstall and postupgrade scripts - both of which run the same command.
The command works fine by itself...it just does not execute after the install.

If your target is 10.5 (which means you use a FLAT package), how can you have a postupgrade script?
