[Composer] chopping up packages

[Ernst, Craig S.]

You can also break out the other resources per application to keep it trimmer. So items in Library/Application Support/iDVD, iMovie,iPhoto, etc.

The iDVD themes are about 800MB on their own. So Do what Sean has here, and if you want to go a step further bundle the support files with the individual applications as well.

The quickest and easiest way to do this is to create the Composer package with all the apps installed, and simply pull out the Applications themselves, build and deploy them as seperate packages.

Your required package would contain all the core files and inital preferences.

Your other packages would simply contain /Applications/iPhoto.app/ and iWeb.app, etc.
