I have a few more questions. We have a 32-bit installer today with all component ids explicitly specified. We are planning to move to 32/64 bit installer (mutualy exclusive) with the ability to upgrade current installations (major upgrade).
1. Should we update explicit component ids to "*"? 2. What is going to happen to upgrade code? 3. Is such scenario even possible? If not, what are our options?
