This is correct because you need a logical AND to make sure WPKG verifies that
all shortcuts are installed - during uninstall it's enough that one of the
shortcuts is missing in order to assume the package is not properly installed
any more.


You might use an "execute" check and use your own script which is returning 0 in
case all shortcuts are in place and 1 in case all of them are missing. However
the question remains whet you do in case there is one icon missing only. I would
suggest to return 1 (not installed) to assist WPKG to fix this by running the
installer again. Just a thought...

Right, seems to be a left-over from testing. Thanks for reporting. I changed it
and checked in already (RC7).
