You really don't want to call regasm.exe from inside an MSI. What you really
want to do is get all the necessary registry keys for your COM visible
assembly. I haven't done this myself but looking at one of Rob's old examples
you should be able to get these with the following command line:

Yet another question:
I don't know, which version of .NET Framework is installed on the customer's
computer,
so I can't use a hard coded path for regasm.exe.
How could I get the path of the most recent version of regasm for the custom
actions below?

If I call regasm /unregister my.dll from command line it works.
