PackageMaker problems

I'm trying to make a package for an app that puts the application in the user's Application folder and also needs to put a bundle in the Library/Application Support folder. I set the permissions for the dstroot to owner rw, group rw everyone r as this is necessary for installing in to the Application folder. Other settings:

Needs auth - no
Required - yes (because the bundle location)
Req reboot - no
Use UserMask - yes
Overwrite permiss - no
Install flat - no

Here are some of my problems:

In the select destination install window, installer says the installation will require 102 MB but the reality is that it is about 1 MB.

The Application icon is not enabled but is included in a subdirectory of the app (in the help file). OS X also does not recognize it as an app anymore.

The bundle in Library/Application Support/ has the correct icon (generic) but now shows the .bundle extension.

Those are the problems if run the installer on the computer I made the package. If I try installing on a new computer the installation fails with this error:

"Could not set file attributes"

Any ideas? I can't figure out why it can't set the file attributes.:confused:
