But you dont get to change your mind at that point... its either quit the
running app, or force quit the installer. isn't that right?

You can check from a preinstall (Flat packages) or preflight (bundle
package) script if an application is running and only displays the
dialog in this case. This is what the iTunes and Safari installer do
IIRC.

screen when ever you launch your installer (before you can even check if
the
app is running)... Now if things changed and this can be done without
that
'script warning' I'd also like to know about it :)
