Sequence of install scripts

Hi,

I am creating a distribution package that needs to be installed on both Leopard and Snow Leopard. Is there a difference in the sequence in which the preinstall and postinstall scripts get invoked on these platforms?

My package contains two component packages and I would like the second component to not get installed if the postinstall of the first one fails. There seems to be a difference in behavior on Leopard vs. Snow Leopard. On Leopard, if postinstall of component_1 fails (script returns -1), then component_2 does not get installed. However on 10.6, component_2 gets installed even if postinstall of component_1 fails.

Thanks,

Sakshi
