I've got a property that a custom action will expect to exist if a
specific directory is supposed to be deleted upon uninstall.
I'd like this property (call it UNINSTALL_SITE) to be set under either
of two conditions: a) I'm uninstalling, not upgrading, or b) I'm
upgrading, but the version number is doing a major jump (the first or
second parts of the msi version are changing, say, from 5.10.257 to
5.12.0, but not 5.10.257 to 5.10.258)
Would code like what's shown below do the job, or would the property not
get to the old version's msi when doing the uninstall part of the
upgrade?
