From my reading and my experience in trying to make it work, it would seem that it is not possible to successfully embed and run a script as a distribution requirement for a flat distribution. I'm looking for confirmation that this is not possible before moving on to explore other approaches.

Using an embedded script is only supported by Installer.app (or
installer or installd)  in Mac OS X 10.6 and later.

I don't remember whether PackageMaker supports this or not. Other solutions do.
