I have two applications, a MSI and a bootstrapper/UI that invokes the MSI.  To 
prevent double ARP entries, we set the ARPSYSTEMCOMPONENT property in the 
bootstrapper <bundle>.

This works fine, except when we apply a patch.  Because the MSI is blocked, so 
is its patch.  We cannot see it, and therefore cannot uninstall the patch.

If I force it to show up in ARP by adding registry entries, a patch that is 
applied to a MSI install (not through bootstrapper) now shows double patch 
entries in the ARP.

What is correct way to handle this problem?  I'm using Wix 3.6.

Thanks,

George
