Metapackage that can install depending on architecture

Hi there:

I'm fairly new to using PackageMaker as I have used it to package smaller applications and such, but haven't used it extensively.
I have a project and would appreciate any guidance that the more experienced folks (you) can provide.



I have application "A". This application comes in two version: PPC and Intel. I have built 2 separate packages. What I would ideally like to build is a metapackage installer that can detect the machine architecture type and install the correct package for the architecture. But I have no clue as to where to start as to how to get that working. From my reading, it looks like I will be needing a script that would do this. But other than this, I have no clue where to start looking for literature that documents this. This would be the only need I have as far as this is concerned.


Any pointers are appreciated.

Cheers

Roy
