I have a simple burn installer which bundles an application with a few
prerequisites. Upon releasing a new version of the application, I also
created a new bundle, which is unchanged except for linking to the new MSI.
When I attempt to install the new bundle, the process which happens is: new
bundle is installed, old bundle is uninstalled.
The reason that's bad is that while my application remains installed (the
MSI upgrades correctly), all of its prerequisites are uninstalled, leaving
me with a stunted install on the system.
The current installer is built with the WiX 3.6 beta version (both the MSI
and the bundle), the old one with a version from three weeks ago or so.
Here's some log:

-uninstall -quiet -burn.related.upgrade'
I think it might be related to the fact that some of the MSIs may be
all-users, which might lead to some brokenness, however, I would have
thought that expected behavior would be to call the uninstall before calling
the install.
Also, I got an extra UAC dialog for the uninstall process (though that might
be because it has a somewhat older burn version).
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Roee
