Anyone figured out how to build installer packages yet (like the one used to install developer tools off the CD)? I've been itching to try that out (if I remember right, it's based off of Debian's older package management system), but I can't find any tools or docs. The "Package Builder" in the Developer set looks like it's more for building application .app packages, not installer .pkg ones.

The PackageMaker application included with the Developer CD is the correct application for creating Installer packages. The interface is a bit rough, but I have used it to make packages.
