Iceberg: how to Require components of sub-meta-package that is set Selected?

site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com Delivered-To: installer-dev(a)lists.apple.com Hi, I need to have several options (Selected) components in my mpkg installer, but each of those has two components of their own that needs to be Required if its parent component is selected. Is this possible? I tried simply setting the main component meta-packages to Selected, and setting the sub-components of each of those to Required, but unfortunately, when I run the installer, the main components cannot be un-selected. It's as if they are set to Required by the fact that their sub-components are Required. I can't just set everything to Selected, because then the user could select a component but un-select any of its sub-components, and the software wouldn't install correctly. I need to be able to select or de-select a given component, but IF it's selected, then they should NOT be able to de-select its sub-components. How would I go about doing that?
