Ah, good to know.  I couldn't find out if that was the case.  Thanks!

That is also the current Burn behavior.

Sorry if I wasn't clear.  What I'm trying to do with the chain and MSP Packages is:

If the MSP file is NOT present in the patcher folder, download the MSP file.
If the MSP file IS present in the patcher folder, skip downloading the MSP file and use the local MSP file.

Preferably without having to re-compile the burn package twice.  This isn't about detecting if a MSP file is installed already, it's about detecting if a MSP file exists thereby not having to download it as part of chain.  So we can easily customize the patcher to be either small or large based on our needs without making different versions of the patcher.
