Currently only one package can be provided as "the" pre-req package for .NET (for managed BAs). That isn't sufficient for .NET on XP/2003 since they require two packages (WIC and CLR).

How exactly is this supposed to work?

I use the NetFx extension to install NetFx 4.52 and am trying to additionally install another required runtime.

The NetFx part works as intended.

<WixVariable Id="WixMbaPrereqPackageId" Value="NetFx452Redist" />
<WixVariable Id="WixMbaPrereqLicenseUrl" Value="redist\Netfx_eula452.rtf" />

If NetFx is installed by mbaprereq, the other runtime will also be installed.

The problem is, mbaprereq will not install the other runtime when NetFx is already present.

In my bundle I use a condition that correctly checks for a required runtime's install status:

<util:RegistrySearch Id="someruntime_check" Root="HKCR" Key="Installer\Products\blah" Value="ProductName" Variable="someruntime_installed" Result="exists" Win64="yes"/>

The runtime is declared like this:

<ExePackage SuppressSignatureVerification="yes" Id="SomeRuntime" Name="redist\SomeRuntime64.exe" SourceFile="..\redist\someRuntime64.exe" InstallCommand="/q /log" RepairCommand="/q /log" UninstallCommand="/x /log" Compressed="no" Permanent="yes" DetectCondition="someruntime_installed" PerMachine="yes" bal:PrereqSupportPackage="yes"/>

The custom BA creates a BootstrapperApplicationData.xml with this:

<MbaPrerequisiteSupportPackage PackageId="SomeRuntime" />

<WixPackageProperties Package="SomeRuntime" Vital="yes" DisplayName="SomeRuntimeInstaller" Description="Starts the installation of SomeRuntime" DownloadSize="12345" PackageSize="12345" InstalledSize="12345" PackageType="Exe" Permanent="yes" LogPathVariable="WixBundleLog_SomeRuntime" RollbackLogPathVariable="WixBundleRollbackLog_SomeRuntime" Compressed="no" DisplayInternalUI="no" Version="1.0.0" Cache="yes" />

<WixPayloadProperties Payload="SomeRuntime" Package="SomeRuntime" Name="redist\SomeRuntime64.exe" Size="12345" LayoutOnly="no" />

Log extract from case when NetFx is not present and both packages will install correctly:

Am I interpreting this correctly that the mbaprereq will only ever start if the Burn engine for some reason fails to actually load the custom BA.dll?
