Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PULL 07/14] qga-win: Fixing msi upgrade disallow in WiX file
Date: Tue,  3 Jul 2018 15:52:14 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180703205221.24788-8-mdroth@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180703205221.24788-1-mdroth@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

From: Bishara AbuHattoum <bishara@daynix.com>

Issue: When upgrading qemu-ga using the msi from an old version
       to a newer one, the upgrade is not allowed by the msi
       showing this error message "Another version of this product
       is already installed."

BZ# 1536331: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1536331

Fix: For the upgrade to be allowed by the msi the WiX file must
     provide three things:
      1. Changing product's Id. (assigning it to "*")
      2. Constant product's UpgradeId. (exists)
      3. Changing version. (exists)
