Your already building an MSI. I'm saying you still build that same just-one
MSI, but in a slightly more indirect way. If you want to create MSTs using
wixouts instead of wixpdbs you need a wixout from your base also, not its
wixpdb. I was simply describing how to get a wixout from your base.
Yes, you can get those MSTs from torch. You don't need to build actual MSIs
from all of your cultures, only from your base. I'm trying to tell you an
alternate way to build your base MSI so that you will have files that torch can
use together.
