I would have asked what's needed to build the installer instead 
of starting from scratch. What you need from that script is 
PackageMaker. Apparently it has been deprecated but it's still 
useable. It can be download here: 
https://developer.apple.com/downloads. It's part of "Auxiliary 
tools for Xcode Late July 2012", it requires a free developer 
account. It's expected to be installed in /Applications

I can do that in a new post. I just thought it would be easier to 
use the existing scripts.
