If WPKG executes all desired upgrade and remove commands correctly, then
it's usually an issue which has to be solved by fixing up the packages.
As you indicate that sometimes some commands seem to continue "after the
client progress bar goes away" (I guess you're referring to logon delay
of WPKG-client on Windows XP) this indicates that some of your commands
might fork and continue to run in background while returning to WPKG too
quickly. So you might have to add additional waits (e.g. insert commands
like 'ping -n 10 localhost") or do more intelligent checking to wait for
the command to complete before letting WPKG continue.
The VLC uninstaller is a very good example of bad practice, here I need
to use such a similar loop to wait for the uninstaller to complete its job:
The NSIS installers are known to fork a second process, which runs a
copy of the installer from the TEMP folder.
The template for the NSIS installer shipping with WPKG includes the
solution to this problem.
As Rainer says, if you need detailed help we need detailed information
and the debug logs are a good place to start with.
A brief description of your problem will only result in a guessing game ;-)
BTW, I have never encountered such a strange behavior with any of the
WPKG releases I have used.
