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.. )



I have the EXACT same issue!!!!!

but when you figure it out on a number of 250+ machines well... lets just say forget uninstalling it till next rebuild


This would be a good idea to have as a option in wpkg so people can choose which method they like..
