If you use white space characters in your user account password, the "Installer.app" will refuse to install packages (i.e. "Developer.pkg",...). Use the 'File->Show log' menu to see what happen in the log, the Installer application will complains on access right on.
Change your password, in the "Users" system preferences panel and retry. Et voila.
