I missed the original posting but here you go. . . I saw a similar message with some of the stuff that we are working on. What I believe it means is that an assembly that was installed with windows installation services (e.g. via MSI) has a reference to the assembly you are trying to remove. The best bet is to uninstall the assembly/program that has a reference (using add/remove programs). Alternatively, you can use the gacutil "/uf" flag to remove the assembly, but when you use that, the command line gets a bit ugly (you need the full name of the assembly, including version, culture, and public key token.
