I’m making a PackageMaker Distribution .mpkg with four packages and
an application.
On Snow Leopard we had some users complain because the App folder
Installer created inside Applications/ was getting created with
permissions that was locking the user out (Everyone=No Access).

So I followed what I thought was the generally accepted wisdom, and
set the permissions for all the installed items in my packages to
owner = root, group = admin.
That didn’t make any difference. But it’s only a problem on Snow
Leopard.
I wondered if the problem was that my application’s folder is only
defined in the application packages’ “Destination” field — I don’t
set up a prototype folder hierarchy inside the packages.
Pilot error? Or known issue?
The best thing to do in such a case is to check what the permissions
are in the payload:
- use lsbom
or
- use Pacifist
