This has been around for a while. If you were to log the install I think
you'd find a message something like "component xxx will not be installed
because an equal version is already installed". The trouble is that it
never re-evaluates that decision and so RemoveExistingProducts goes and
deletes it. The product is broken, so a repair will put it back.

I have found another problem with GAC. Doing a full product update
results in no files installed into the GAC. I use
SharedDllRefCount="yes" for GAC file Component. All I want is to
completely remove version 1.0 and install version 1.1 of the product.

Maybe it has something to do with RemoveExistingProducts scheduling, I
currently use After="InstallInitialize".
