The need to remove files is a sign that you should consider using a 
major upgrade. It's possible to remove files but you've discovered the 
drawback. You need to add RemoveFile table rows to have a patch delete 
the file and it complicates patch uninstall. (See "Uninstallable 
Patches" in the MSI SDK for details.)

The general recommendation is to do nothing, just leave the files there. 
You can also replace it with a zero-byte or nulled-out file.
