I would like to use the Windows registry (and not the file system) to
detect if a package is already installed.

I was thinking of using something like this, but can't seem to get it to
work. I most likely have the logic wrong in CDATA.

    <Property Id="PACKAGE_INSTALLED">
      <RegistrySearch
        Id="REG_FOUND"
        Root="HKLM"
 
Key="SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{xxxxxxxx-xxxx-
xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx}"
        Name="ProductVersion"
        Type="raw"
        Win64="no" />
    </Property>

    <Condition
        Message="Package X is installed. Please uninstall it before
trying again.">
                <![CDATA[(NOT PACKAGE_INSTALLED) OR REMOVE]]>
    </Condition>

Any advice is appreciated.
