I create two disk images which all set "relocation" to TRUE. One is Ver1 and another is Ver2.

When I installed the Ver1, I change the install destination to other folder but not default location. I want Ver2 can do upgrade for Ver1. But if I don't change folder to the location specified for Ver1 manually when I install Ver2, Installer will install it to the default location.

Is it possible that installer to find the location automatically?

1) What kind of items do you install?

Command .pkg generated using PackageMaker in the command line

Actually, I was thinking more of applications vs files.


2) Is there a locator set for the item that is relocatable?


Do you mean the default location? Yes. I set in the info.plist

The locator in this case would be an option to find the previous location of an application. If you use PackageMaker 3 and install applications, it's quite possible that a locator has been created for your applications.
