After a couple days beating my head against the wall, I finally figured out why the symbolic links I create in my package's preinstall phase aren't working when the package is bundled up as part of a distribution. It seems when you add a package to a distribution, PM clears the "Follow symbolic links" flag! It seems like PM should use whatever flags are set for the package when it's included in the dist. Anyway, I just thought I'd share this in case others run into a similar issue. This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
