Subject: [WiX-users] Patching a product without ProductVersion property

We have a legacy product that was distributed without ProductVersion authored
into the MSI.
I don't know how this was done, since ProductVersion is a required property;
however I can only fix that in future major-upgrade releases.

The problem now is that we want to deliver a patch package for this product.
Building the patch fails because the base is missing the ProductVersion.

Is there any way to work around that?

Thanks,
Nir.
