After a bunch of more important tasks I was able to come back to this task. I first tried the diff solution which worked as expected and I ended with a nant solution which removes the diff dependency. I would like to share this here for all others who might need it. Since wix throws an error on missing files in buildarea, only a one way check is needed to check if all files from buildarea are present in administrative install location (below installer dir). In addition some files could be excluded from the check if needed.
