On Windows platforms, after uninstalling a development version of 2.1 or
unofficial build 2.03 or 2.04, it is sometimes impossible to install OpenOffice
2.1. During the process, a dialog box appears saying that an newer version is
already installed (even if there is none).

This probably has to do with dirty registry (see issue 45477). Setting to P1
because some users reported it's impossible to install OOo in such
circumstances, even after some cleaning of the registry. I'm waiting for
confirmation if cleaning the registry using steps described in 45477 did resolve
the problem.

The problem can be easily reproduced on a machine with a commercial build from
UX Systems: OpenOffice.ux.pl 2.04, see
ftp://sunsite.icm.edu.pl/packages/OpenOffice/ux/OOo-2.0.4-1-Win32-ux.pl.exe 
(do not uninstall this build) and official 2.1 Polish build. The UX build is
reported as newer. The older build should happily coexist with a newer one,
moreover, it shouldn't be reported as newer.
