Hi, 

I have a Packagemaker package that I have been able to as a standard with out the need for administrative privileges in OS 10.4, 10.5, and 10.6.  Unfortunately, in 10.7, I am now prompted to enter in administrative privileges to do the installation.  The files are installed under the user's home folder, so administrative privileges should not be necessary.  Does anyone know if Lion is more restrictive?  If so, does anyone know how I can work around this so it doesn't prompt for administrative privileges when installing as a standard user.

Thanks
Brian
