After searching the r-sig-mac archive for packagemaker, I found one post and answers to it at https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-sig-mac/2010-July/007578.html.  Still, I am wondering if there are scripts for packaging R and R-GUI into an installation package.   

Thank you,

If so, where could I find it?  I'm new to either building R from scratch or packaging a Mac installation.  When I was reading "R for Mac OS X Developer's Page" at http://r.research.att.com/, I thought that there must be some scripts for packaging to create an installation file, such as R-2.14-branch-leopard.pkg in the web site at http://r.research.att.com/.  I could not find any of such script or helpful information.
