I was wondering if anyone out there has had the unfortunate task of trying to
bootstrap an InstallAnywhere package?

I ask because apparently to uninstall these types of packages you need to
launch an "uninstall.exe" file that gets installed by the setup executable.
That being the case it appears burn won't be able to handle removal of these
natively (because it knows nothing about the "uninstall.exe" and you can't
tell it to launch an arbitrary executable).

I really can't believe there is no way to launch an uninstall from the
original install package (please let me know if I'm wrong here). Does anyone
know a hack to get this to work or have any other advice on how to deal with
InstallAnywhere?
