I have an app that only supports Intel based Macintoshes. I want to make an intel processor be a pre-requisite for installation. I don't see that particular feature listed, although I see things like number of processors, etc. I would think this would be a common thing people would want to require.

How should I do this with PackageMaker?

In addition to the gestalt solution, you also have:

- sysctl:

system.sysctl('hw.cputype')

Intel is 7.

- if we are talking about Distribution Scripts, what about using undocumented features?

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<installer-script authoringTool="Packages" authoringToolVersion="1.0" authoringToolBuild="2B3" verifiedSpecVersion="2.0" minSpecVersion="1.0">
<options hostArchitectures="i386"/>



Hope it can help.
