Why don't they install?

Subject: [WiX-users] Installing components on condition

Hi all

I have a ComponentGroup with three different Web.config files, each one 
contained in its own Component with its own GUID and mutually exclusive 
conditions.
Light will give an ICE30 warning in this situation, but according to below 
post, it should be ok as long as the conditions for the components are mutually 
exclusive:

http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/conditional-component-installation-td687768.html#none

One of the answers in the above post suggests that I should use the same GUID 
for each component. However, when I do that, the Web.config file won't not 
uninstall.

So, my questions are:
Is the information in the above post obsolete (considering it's from 2005)?
More in general, what is the best practice in a situation like this?

I'm using WiX 3.8.

Thanks,
Hlynur Tryggvason
