site_archiver@lists.apple.com Delivered-To: Installer-dev@lists.apple.com Is there an easy way to "drop" admin rights for a postflight script?

I have a postflight install script for my Spotlight plugin. Since stand-alone Spotlight plugins need to be installed into /Library/ Spotlight, I have set the install package to run with administrator privileges. On the other hand, the postflight script calls /usr/bin/mdimport which refuses to run as root. This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
