I confirm that works. The recipe i use to update WPKG is:

  <package
        id="wpkg"
        name="WPKG"
        revision="1211"
        priority="100"
        reboot="false">

        <check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="WPKG" />

        <install cmd='msiexec /qn /i "%SOFTWARE%\WPKG\WPKG Client 1.2.1.msi" SETTINGSFILE=%WPKGROOT%\settings.xml ALLUSERS=1 REBOOT=ReallySuppress' >
                <exit code="0" />
                <exit code="3010" reboot="postponed" />
        </install>                      
        <upgrade cmd='msiexec /qn /i "%SOFTWARE%\WPKG\WPKG Client 1.2.1.msi" SETTINGSFILE=%WPKGROOT%\settings.xml ALLUSERS=1 REBOOT=ReallySuppress' >
                <exit code="0" />
                <exit code="3010" reboot="postponed" />
        </upgrade>
        <remove cmd='msiexec /qn /x{FD883F05-6D6B-4E81-8FD7-B209FEF750CD}' />
  </package>


I've also noted a strange thing: i also use this recipe:

  <package
        id="wpkg-settings"
        name="WPKG Settings"
        revision="10"
        priority="5"
        reboot="false"
        execute="once">
        <depends package-id="wpkg"/>

        <install cmd='%ProgramFiles%\WPKG\wpkginst.exe --SETTINGSFILE=%WPKGROOT%\settings.xml' />
  </package>

to upgrade the wpkg configuration, but seems not to work.


1) if i run it, no error show up, but nothing happened.

2) if i run the %ProgramFiles%\WPKG\wpkginst.exe --SETTINGSFILE=%WPKGROOT%\settings.xml
 command manually from a command prompt, data are imported (so, the xml
seems have no error).

3) even if i run the 'wpkg' recipe with the same installer (eg, upgrade
 revision but using the same 'WPKG Client 1.2.1.msi' just installed)
the machine does not reboot (clever windows! There's no need to reboot
if i substitute a file with another one perfectly eqal! ;), but settings
are not imported.


Seems to me that 'wpkginst.exe --SETTINGSFILE=' can be used only if
WPKGClient was not running, and this is rather unoptimal....
