[WiX-devs] Missing pubca binary for 3.0.2211.0

2006-10-17 Thread John Watson

Besides writing your own chainer you’ll have to just rely on documentation and/or a message box in your second MSI. What we do in Votive for now (until we get the chainer) is we check for the ProjectAggregator2 component GUID and if it’s not installed, then we show a message box saying that
