Thanks that is useful and confirms what I thought - seems a bit odd that the 
bootstrapper needs to know what it is installing. I'll give the ResumeType.Arp 
a try.

I have looked at InstallationViewModel.cs some more and I think I am
starting to understand it.

One question how do you detect that the bundle is already installed and
hence display uninstall/repair?



In the WiX BA it looks like they handle this in DetectedPackage() to figure
it out (which is called by the DetectPackageComplete callback). They
consider the bundle to be installed if the "Wix" package  (core.msi) is
installed.

In my experimental BA I am checking the value of
Bootstrapper.Command.Resume. If it is "ResumeType.Arp" then I know the
bundle is installed.
