Installation failing for subpackages when called from postinstall using installer command on 10.6

Hi,

I have a package which has to install about 16 sub-packages. I am calling them from the postinstall script of my package using installer command. However, in some 10.6 systems, installation of few packages fail. It is only happening in 10.6 machines.The log doesn't give much information. The packages that fail are always the last few packages.

Please look at a chunk of log that shows the installation failed. I am not able to understand what is causing the issue.If I install packages individually, it installs successfully.
Is it because of too many installer commands being called from the postinstall script? (If so, why should this happen).
Any help will be highly appreciated.
