Show nested package progress

site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com Delivered-To: installer-dev(a)lists.apple.com Thread-index: Acn5mBuXxEnEB6UmckKI6x+o5EqfWA== Thread-topic: Show nested package progress I have a monolithic installer that contains several different .pkg and .mpkg components. I'd LOVE for the main installer to show the progress that each individual package is undergoing while in process. Anyone know of a trick for getting this to happen? I don't have the .pkg or .mpkg components included in the main .pkg file. They all have http URL references to pull the separate packages as necessary and run the individual packages locally once downloaded via postscript. (I know, that complicates it but is necessary). -- Bryan S. Lee _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.

I think I'm getting there. I'm just wondering about the warnings that PM throws at me.
