Hello all,
I posted the following question earlier in the week, only to have it rejected by the list, because I had just joined the list and wasn't yet approved to post. (I was VERY desperate for a solution.)


But, between the time I posted, and the time the post was rejected, I found a solution. So, in the hopes of helping someone else that might be having a similar problem, here is my question again along with the solution I found:

So, the solution? When you start up PackageMaker, make sure that your target OS is set to Tiger. NOT Leopard. That's it. Everything works as expected. Now, the question of "Why?" is one I'd REALLY like to have answered....

When you target Tiger, you get a bundle package. When you target Leopard, you get a FLAT package (just a file). THis may lead to Installer.app using different code for installation. WOuld be worth filing a bug report.
