you need to delete the package and make the reg key thing an application
script type.
Then "Deploy" it and set the actual application as a dependency.

Of course then you cannot uninstall it because only the last app in the
chain will uninstall.

The better approach is to wrap the entire thing in a script that installs
the msi and enters the reg keys etc. and put it all into one application.
