We'll discuss Snow Leopard issues in this group when Snow Leopard is released and Apple's NDA is lifted.
The location, presence, and format of package receipts aren't part of any public API. So, for some software checking for package receipts to know if a dependency is installed is a bad strategy. Mac OS X packaging/install mechanism is rather lacking, especially from the standpoint of non-Apple (3rd) parties. The currently preferred way to check for the installed MacFUSE version is to run: autoinstall-macfuse-core -p where the autoinstall-macfuse-core tool resides in the fusefs.fs bundle. If the bundle or the tool is missing, either MacFUSE is not installed or it's not an official (correct) MacFUSE installation. This isn't exactly news either.
