> Very likely the uninstall is not really working properly.

I can confirm. Most of NSIS installers suffer from this trouble.

Some upgrade flawlessy (so it is not a NSIS problem).


Some other trigger a disinstallation of previous version and an
installation of the newer ones, while the disinstallation suffer from
the classical ''fork'' problem of NSIS.
Symptoms are that WPKG say ''check failed after upgrade'' but software
are correctly installed (because the installation continue in
background, and normally works).

Normally i solve that situation doing, on upgrade, a disinstallation of
the previous one in a start "" /wait jail (with or without the _?
option, it depends), and then an installation.
