there's a known problem where i think we're using unique product codes for every different chef msi so that you can have multiple chef-client packages installed at the same time (even though they overwrite each other's files).

not sure if that's related, but it probably doesn't help any...

authored but I have authored installers using WiX that support "Upgrade scenario".
