Installer hangs on "preparing"

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Downloaded SIMBL installer (also tried version bundled with Afloat 2.4)
2. Run installer
3. Enter admin password when prompted
4. Installer begins "Preparing for installation" animation. 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected: Installation proceeds - success or fail message displayed
Actual: Installer never proceeds past "preparing".  Let installer wait for 15 
min before Force Quitting.


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
SIMBL 0.9.9
OSX 10.6.8

Attached you will find the installer log.  Note: the current installation has 
been running for about 6 min or so, but the last log entry is for 5 minutes ago.

This log is from a different installer. Can you download the official release 
and send me the log from that?

I had tried both the official and one bundled with Afloat... must've copied the 
log from an attempt with Afloat.

Oddly, when I went to capture the log again today, it worked just fine.  So 
either:

- The installer bundled with Afloat was corrupt somehow and the fail was 
cached/hung in some manner
or
- Some other system state was preventing completion that has since been 
rectified
or
- black magic voodoo.

Thanks for your response.  Close this bug cannot reproduce.
