You may get the permissions correct immediately after the install, but if your user 'repairs' permissions you are broken again. This is because the receipts file for the install contains the wrong permission information and your post install script is not run again during the repair to fix them. Am I wrong? Yep, you are. "Repair Permissions" only uses the bom files from a select group of Apple-installed pkgs. Everything else is ignored. I do agree that post-flights are a bad way of covering up for PackageMaker's problems (Iceberg is a much better solution when possible), but this is not the reason why.
