After looking at the Wxs schema, it would seem that this approach wouldn't work since the one of the parents for Component is Directory. Is there a pattern for dealing with removal of files in a patch? |

I'm reviewing the process for creating patches and I've run into a bit of a snag when it comes to generating the MSP from a pair of MSI files. In my output, I've received a number of
error WIX0305: Removing component 'cmpxyzabc...' from feature 'Main' is not supported. Either the component was removed or the guid changed in the transform....I inspected the MSI files using Orca and I was able to determine that the component was associated with a file that was removed in a subsequent release. The component for the file was generated for the original release using Heat. It appears that Heat generates a new component for each file. Would it be possible to generate a single component for all files using Heat?
