Rob,
Yes I have noticed that. Just read your post on small or minor update, it
was very helpful, however, I think I would have to do a major upgrade every
time. Since my MSI automation violates every minor upgrade rule.
Our Continues Integration server builds a MSI and runs all units tests every
time when someone checks in. So our code is always packaged up at any
time. However, components are changing all the time, which breaks the minor
upgrade.

Automated generation of MSI files is a very dangerous thing to do. You
probably have to do a major upgrade, the slowest major upgrade that removes
the previous product before installing the later product. This is why we
(Bob and I) are constantly reminding people to be very careful when creating
their Components.

Bob,
I'm having a lot of problems trying to do minor upgrade. Partly the MSI
is automated using a custom in house tool I wrote, so I have less control
over it.
I might just have to do a major upgrade every time. Is there any side
effect by doing so?
Thanx,
Aaron

The MSI SDK talks about it starting at
