Here is an example. this change would make it easy to change user, group, startup scripts, etc.. I like the /Library/StartupItems method. I would also like the package to create, update, delete user, group information. This is mostly to allow easy local modification of the package.
I thought apache2 included apr (thats why it conflicts with the apr package?) Since it does, why does all that apr-fix stuff have to be in a PostInstScript? Why not an InstallScript? You can add all the patches to your .patch file. Same with the others - you can put that code into your .patch file, and patch it into a new file. Modifying the files of other packages is an extremely bad thing to do and is error prone.
I dont think automatically starting apache after the package is installed is a good idea. We leave that to the users.
You should use aDaemonicFile script to create your startup items, if possible. Whats wrong with that method?
