Flash 10.1 and InstaDMG
Apparently, Adobe saw fit to change out they made the Flash Player installer. It is now a .app. No problem I thought, because you can dig in the .app and find the Adobe Flash Player.pkg installer file.
I put the Adobe Flash Player.pkg into InstaDMG and ran it. Guess what? It doesn't work! Adobe did something differently with this .pkg, even thought it has ALWAYS worked in the past for me. Craptacular. Here is the debug log:
