Hi, folks.
Sorry to ask such naive (and honestly, non-WiX) questions, but...
when installing from an MSI, Windows Installer makes decisions on EXE files
based on the file version resource in the file, right?
I have a vendor releasing software to me where they've set the Product
version in their

That doesn't sound right. If Bundle v1.1 is an upgrade of Bundle v1.0 then v1.0
will be removed after v1.1 is installed. Reference counting should mean the 20
packages are not removed if Bundle v1.1 lists them (as I noted below).

One of my sreens in ISWIX is the "Namespace" designer. It's a simple grid
with checkboxes that display extension prefixes and target namespaces. I
created this to make it easier to add references to things like the util

I believe I am getting an erroneous failure message when building a rather
large Wix project. The project contains a total of 27,654 files in it,
divided among 31 different cabs. However, after candle/light on the
project, I get a failure after about 6 minutes and no output files are
built. (No .c

Yes.
Note: the presence of a per-user package makes the bundle per-user.

Right. Any packages that are "beside" the bundle exe will be used

As far as I know, shipping packages in the bundle vs downloading them
Yes. Two options one does as you describe, the other maybe less so (but might
work better):
1. Bundle v1.1 is an upgrade of v1.0. Bundle v1.1 will need to know about the
other 19 packages but you don't have to ship them. Burn will skip all the stuff
that is already present on the machine. Howev
