Superseding really *should* mean that the update you are providing is meant
to include the fixes from all previous fixes.  If the result is a file gets
"rolled back" as part of a hotfix then so be it.

Well, a rollback does not happen. The file version rules seem to be
dictating when the superseded hotfix has a lower sequence number than the
superseding hotfix.

However, when the small update has a higher sequence number than the minor
upgrade, then the behavior is the dead opposite(as described in the original
problem statement)

Could someone explain this ? I have also attached the log file from my
original problem statement.

Regards,
Kiran Hegde
