I think you mis-understood my initial complaint...
Lets say I install Firefox. At the time of installation, I believe that
the Uninstall command is
%ProgramFiles%\Mozilla\Firefox\uninstall.exe -ms
(Totally made up, don't use this command)
Ok, so time goes on, and I need to uninstall Firefox from a few systems
for whatever reason.. ( not upgrade ) and during the uninstall, I figure
out that it should be -msa on the uninstall vice -ms. I update it on my
server's packages.xml. This doesn't help me though, because Wpkg still
uses the commands that are in the local wpkg.xml file. So, I get stuck
finding some other solution to remove this software.. ( And most people
would probably at that point just go do it manually.. )
Thanks,
Michael
