Thanks Stéphane.  Just a couple of quick questions:

1.  I believe I can do that from the command line using xar.  A
GUI app is no good to me.  It needs to be done as part of my
'make_release' script.

I'm not sure this is possible with the xar command tool provided with the OS.


The man page does not list this feature.

But the option to do it is --sign as can be seen in the source code: http://www.opensource.apple.com/source/xar/xar-36/xarsig/xar-sig.c .

2.  My understanding is that there is no way to sign a 'bundle'
meta-package (I need a 'bundle' meta-package to be able to
install on Tiger).  I don't know what a flat distribution is.
If that works on Tiger, I would give it a go.

No, you can't sign a bundle metapackage. A flat distribution is like a distribution but with everything (the distribution script, resources and packages) inside the same xar file. It will only work on Mac OS X 10.5 or later.
