Anyway, there are some issues in your package: [ ] system("chmod 775 / /Applications /Library"); / is not 775, it has a special bit too. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.

For example, if I install in /usr/local/bin, my installer changes the permissions on /, /usr, /local, and /bin. I've tried building packages both from the command line and using the PackageMaker GUI, with the same results. This seems so fundamentally busted, that I figure I must be missing something. Please HELP!!! What authorization are you requiring? It's not a question of particular permissions. The point is that the installer shouldn't change the permissions on /, /usr, etc. at all. The docs say that, as long as I don't set the 'IFPkgFlagOverwritePermissions' flag to 'true, the installer shouldn't modify the permissions of any existing directories.
