OK, so let's say I build: - a package with bundle B with a locator L. - a metapackage with a package with bundle B with a locator L1.

When you build a 10.5 "metapackage", the locator is saved within the distribution script. Not in the package itself, that would be too easy. I then use the Flat Package Editor to remove the package and use a http reference instead to the first package (the one with locator L). So I still have locator L1 defined in the distribution script and locator L defined in the referenced package. When I install the metapackage, which locator will be used? L or L1? Is the result guaranteed? It would be nice if Apple could spare a few dollars to complete the Distribution Reference documentation to fully cover the format. Right now, when it comes to locator, it reminds one of the technical documentation of Mac OS X 10.0. This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
