[wix-users] WixStdBA supporting Upgrades

Yeah, use a DetectCondition that is unique per version. Otherwise it isn't really a DetectCondition for (only) that ExePackage.

Subject: Re: [wix-users] WixStdBA supporting Upgrades

I now understand my problem.   The DetectConditions are the same in both v1 and v2.  Does this mean that an upgrade Bundle cannot re-release (non-unique) an ExePackage as part of the upgrade Bundle? Therefore, the DetectConditions must be unique between releases?  This appears to be true.  

I must be able to re-release a required 3rd party installer as part of an upgraded Bundle.  Is there a way to tell the engine to uninstall v1 prior to installing v2?
