Bug report

Bug description:

After downloading the MacOS installer from https://www.python.org/downloads/, selecting "Customize" for the Installation Type and deselecting "GUI Applications", the /Applications/Python 3.x folder isn't created.

I'd have expected to at least find the readme, license and the install certificates script there even without the GUI components.
