InstallationCheckScript are used only by metapackages and packages.
They are not supported directly by distribution scripts. If you want
to set an InstallationScript on a metapackage, you need to select the
Mac OS X 10.3 target. Mac OS X 10.4 target implies it will be a
distribution script if you're not building just one package.
InstallationCheck script may not be invoked by a metapackage if
requirements are defined (because the purpose of requirements is to
replace the InstallationCheck and VolumeCheck scripts).

Can anyone tell me which is the correct way of putting
InstallationCheck script into a package.I have dragged and dropped
the Installationcheck script into the "resources" folder of the
package in "raw editing mode" and after building of the package
when I do "Show Package Contents" I am able to see the scripts but
the scripts are never invoked.My InstallationCheck script checks if
the application is running and throws an error if it is running.But
no custom error message(which I had defined in
InstallationCheck.strings file) is not getting displayed if
application is running. I am using minimum target as
10.4.,packagemaker version is 3.0.4
I have read somewhere that InstallationCheck script works only for
packages not for metapackages.Is it true? Kindly help.
