No.  Components installed in different directories is handled by the Windows 
Installer.  As long as the Components have the same Resources the reference 
counting is correct.

Subject: [WiX-users] Does this violate component rules?

A shared component defined in a merge module is included in two
different packages, but the two packages install the same component into
different directories.  So there are two copies of the same component
out the system, and two entries in the DB (according to msiinv).

Not directly a WiX question, I know, but the community is great on this
list.

Thanks,
Ben
