Here's what I'm trying to accomplish: Thanks in advance! Chris Maddison _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.

I'm a sophomore computer science student at U of T putting together an installer for a developer kit for first year students. I'd like to install Python, a series of third party Python packages (like PIL, pygame, etc.), and a package of my own. Everything that I would like installed is packaged either into a .mpkg or .pkg. As far as I can tell the ideal way to install of these in one go is collect them into a .mpkg that goes through installing all the sub-packages (stop me if I am wrong, I'm new to this). I tried both PackageMaker and Iceberg. With PackageMaker 3.0.1 on OS 10.5 I can't even seem to make a metapackage, only distribution packages which don't allow embedded metapackages. With Iceberg, despite me putting certain choices as selected they are coming up as "Skip" (some of them are working) and I am incapable of selecting them to install. I'm a bit lost in this and yet it seems like it ought to be rather straight forward as everything is packaged and working separately. This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
