I don't know if Installer.app is a special case, but the usual
solution is to add a custom executable to your plug-in project,
pointing it at the host application (in this case /System/Library/
CoreServices/Installer.app). Make it the active executable for your
plug-in target. Set your breakpoints and run.
(I'm ashamed to say I've never actually done this with Installer plug-
ins, so I may be missing some detail.)
