Hi,
I'm just wondering what part of the registry is used for the uninstall
option, especially when using the
new options since 1.1.0 like versiongreaterorequal .
The excample on the web page
check type=uninstall condition=versiongreaterorequal path=GIMP
value=2.6.6 /
is nice.
But what is with
to the target PC and then run the installation.
Now, following line works for my environement:
C:\temp\Cygwin\setup.exe -q -R %cygpath% -L -l
C:\temp\Cygwin\%_ipath%\release nul
Kind regards,

Hello everybody,
since some days, I'm fighting with the configuration of Cygwin 1.7.1-1
installation.
I need this version because we change to Windows 7 x64.
Problem: wpkg calls the setup.exe of Cygwin and it starts.
Line which calls the start:

Hello,

Hello all,
in my organisation, I encounter a strange problem on PCs where MS Office

Everytime WPKG starts a MSI installation, it triggers an update of Office.

of MS Office.
Has anybody seen this

Hello again,
I face some problems, related to the local wpkg.xml.
1. For what actions is it used beside reflecting the client installation

I have seen that e.g. upgrade and uninstall commands seems to be taken

Hello again,

Hello,
I have a question concerning logical conditions:
Are complex conditions supported like the one below?

settings
are saved immediately after modification instead of just when WPKG
terminates. Mainly this helps in case of unexpected reboot (initiated
outside WPKG) to prevent loss of some progress in case of unexpected
interruption.

Hello,

Hello Rainer,
I agree to most of your arguments.
But there are some circumstances which cause problems.
Most of my users are road warriors.
Although they have a VPN connection to our company network,
a software update over VPN is impossible (takes too long, blocks the
line).
So, I added a

Hello,
I changed the flag
reboot=false
to
reboot=true
to take into account that ZipGenius needs a reboot after deinstallation
before an update is possible.
Changing back to the original value, the update of wpkg.xml worked fine.
This explaines why it worked on some PCs, because wpkg was

Hello Rainer,
let me explain my scenario:
I have a bunch of different user groups: students, secretaries,
consultants, managers, developers, support people.
I created a hierachy in the profiles:
1st level: I grouped packages
2nd level: I grouped the packages for my different usergroups.
