I suspect it's version thing going on. If you install patch2 against 1.0.0.0
then uninstalling it is being interpreted as a requiring reversion to
1.0.0.0. The patching mechanism isn't blind to the installed version it was
applied to. When you install patch1 then patch2, patch2 uninstall knows that
the product needs restoring to patch1's 1.0.1.0.

I think, there must be a discussion on this topic. It's has to do with the
order how u build ur patches . should the second patch be on base version ?
Or based on patch 1?
