Can someone please clarify the effect of the Permanent attribute for a package (e.g. MsiPackage, ExePackage)?
The documentation (http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/wix_xsd_msipackage.htm) says, "Specifies whether the package can be uninstalled. The default is 'no'." Making a package impossible to uninstall seems extremely frustrating for a user, and in my own MsiPackage, when Permanent='yes', I can still uninstall it, so...I don't think I understand what it does.
