[Sparkle] Recommended Approach

Hello All,
I have an application that must run as a trusted process. This
requires that
all of my 3rd-party frameworks get accessed via absolute paths.
Because of this,
I can not have a simple drag-and-drop installer. I must use a package
installer.
Currently, to use Sparkle, I have a package installer that installs
Sparkle into
/Library/Frameworks. I also place my package into a dmg for
distribution.
Is this the best approach? My concern is that the package installer
will continue to
display the license agreement, even on updates. This seems incorrect.
I thought about creating two distros, a "new" distro that uses the
package, and an upgrade
distro that is available via the appcast and does not upgrade the 3rd-
party tools.
Any suggestions would be welcomed.
Thanks
Brian
