help required : effect of changing HOME to secondary partion on installer

Hi ,
  I have a OSX installer pkg . which installs my app in ~/Library/Application support/"COMPANYNAME"/MYGUI.app


Customer has configured user home folder to a secondary partition, and as a result, MYGUI.app is getting installed into /Library/App… instead of /volume/vol2/Library/… (which is basically ~/Library/…).


I could not find any difference in installer logs EXCEPT that while installing on secondary partition, it asked for root permission (because after encountering the failure, it need to install in /Library and hence need the permission to write). So this is more like after effect and not the cause.


* any help in making my product install in ~/Library would be appreciated .

my info.plist details

    <key>IFPkgFlagAllowBackRev</key>
    <false/>
    <key>IFPkgFlagAuthorizationAction</key>
