patch bundle uninstall doesn't remove superseded msp patches

[wixbot]

When using patch bundles with superseding patches, overwriting a previous bundle (same bundle upgradecode) or removing a previously installed bundle from ARP (different bundle upgrade codes so that bundle patch v1.1 is installed alongside v1.2), superseded msp patches of the uninstalling bundle are not removed.
During detection and planning, their state "superseded" is correctly recognized, but the planned action is not to do anything. That leaves the superseded patch on the system, while the bundle which deployed it on the system is removed. Especially when having the msi packages of the bundle being "not visible", the patch v1.1 is difficult to uninstall since it doesn't show in ARPs updates; also, the user won't know nor guess that patch v1.1 will be still on the system.

Log of the bundle showing detection and planning: bundle is detected and uninstalled, superseded patch SamplePackPatch is detected but left on the system.

Suggest taking to v3.9 since I won't have time to verify.

This appears to be fixed in WiX v3.9 by a different commit.

It looks like issue 4779: #4779. Can you post logs to verify?

[wixbot]

Yes, I submitted this as issue 4779, sorry for the confusion.

Also I submitted issue 4779 under a different account as with my fist account, I did not supply a username, and the system ended up showing my email as username.

I added logs to issue 4779, but I would like to supply more info. Is there a way to upload a zip package?

You can't directly attach files here but if you upload them to SkyDrive, Google Drive, DropBox, etc., you can paste a public link here. I'm going to mark this triaged so if you can, post the .zip link to http://wixtoolset.org/issues/4779/.
