[wpkg-users] WPKG uninstalls unmanaged software?

[Falko Trojahn]

Hello Kevin,

Are you sure, there hadn't been a wpkg.xml on this computer before?

> - Create a package for some software that is already installed on this computer
> - Create a profile called "workstation" that contains this software.
> - Create a profile called "preinstall" that does not contain this software.

> Use the above command line to launch wpkg on the test computer.

Please send

- full debug log of this process or, if you don't find it (but - if it 
is reproducible - you should ...), you have perhaps some eventlog entries.

- xmls (at least of the profiles and the McAfee package)

- you don't use Wpkg Client or similar on this computer, do you?

Best regards,
Falko
