There is also the "Installer" application (located in the utilities
folder).
The "installer.app" is probably better than an app written in RB, as
the authentication dialog is handled by it (in RB, I only know the
MBS plugin that is supposed to allow this, but I never had made it
working).

Even that, in my opinion, is not always a reason for using an
installer. Most modern OS X apps are pretty smart meanwhile,
installing any support files (for example, stuff that goes into
Application Support) on first launch - sometimes out of their own
bundle.
Even launching special background processes or adding StartupItems
can often be done out of the running app.
The only useful thing an installer can don is, IMHO, offering aa
"clean uninstall" option - but only wher it makes sense.
Cheers,

Anyway, using an installer is not the most wanted method for a Mac
user, unless you have to copy special files to special folders.
