Hi Rainer,
However I just did exactly this 10 minutes ago. Removed OpenOffice,
FireFox and some other programs manually via the control panel. Then
invoked WPKG service again and all the programs got re-installed.
I followed this discussion carefully and it remembered me of a problem

Hi,
You wrote that after removing Firefox, rebooting and then manually
executing WPKG it did not re-install it. This is exactly the situation I

users.
Full ACK. I forgot
Here is the log file you requested. By the way, the documentation on the flags
DOES NOT specify that /synchronize is a command. Only a flag. This explains the

I'm a new user of wpkg, just trying to figure it out at the moment,
basically just evaluating it right now. So far it looks like it will do
what I need, and that it will be great once I get the profiles and
packages set up. I was wondering if there was a way to install the

This script needs to be copied to the root of the wpkg share, and it
evaluates the following locations:
hosts/*.xml
packages/*.xml
