Distribution package showing wrong installation-size when running the installer.

Hi,

I have 10 component packages. I want to call all of them from a distribution package. I don't want to include them inside the distribution package so I have mentioned the custom path of the packages instead. Everything seems to work but there is one problem. When I try to run the distribution package, it is showing the wrong size in the message "This will take 30 MB of space on your computer". It is not taking into account the sizes of the component packages because at the time of building that distribution package, the packagemaker doesn't has that information(Since only the path is mentioned). 
So, the distribution script contains lines like
<pkg-ref installKBytes="0" ... />

So, is there any way I can solve this problem without hardcoding the size manually in the distribution script?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks,
Vikram
