[wpkg-users] Extend package definition for one host only

[Marco Schmidt]

Yes, this is one way.

I would do it in a more "readable" way :-)

<variable name="PKG_DESTINATION" value="destination_x86" 
architecture="x86" />
<variable name="PKG_DESTINATION" value="destination_x64" 
architecture="x64" />
<install cmd='%ComSpec% /c echo AutoUpdateDisable=1 
>"%PKG_DESTINATION%\mms.cfg"'>

And the host condition I would pack in the the hosts.xml file.

Which I think is easier to maintain.

But yours is also okay, but I would not do it this way.
On my site, there are several persons updating the configuration, 
therefore it has to be as easy and modular as possible.
Not all of my co-workers are able to understand complex logical 
expressions :-)

Greetings ...
  Marco
