This is true and it is designed like this. Else also previous commands 
(including the one just run) would have to be re-evaluated after any change to 
the system or command run. Basically WPKG will remove the XML nodes from the 
package definition which are not evaluating true on checks.

In case of adobe reader you can just apply the MSI, latest rollup patch (MSP) 
and security fix (MSP). The installation will just abort immediately if the 
update has been applied already. No need for WPKG to do the same level of check 
again and preventing execution. Just apply them in order.
