As I understood you, I should create a dummy package that includes the
real package like this:
(dummy file names in this example)

<package id="test" name="Test" revision="1" reboot="false" priority="100">
<include package-id="test2">
<condition>
<check type="logical" condition="not">
<check type="host" condition="os" value="5\.2\.\d{4}"/>
</check>
</condition>
</include>
</package>


No, there is no need for a dummy package you can add this to the profile and use the package node instead of the include node.

I was just lazy and copied an example of mine.


I have tried it on my testcomputer running XP 32 bit, but nothing gets
installed. However, WPKG thinks that the install was successful.
I also tried to reverse the logic with an "and" and changed the value to
what I found on the page:
http://wpkg.org/Extended_host_attribute_matching
But the end result was the same.


The install of the dummy package will always succeed, since there are no checks included.

I would only use a dummy package, if I like to apply one package to multiple hosts, but install different releases based on some conditions.

The full package I have copied this from was:

'---code start (watch for line wraps)

<package id="Java" name="Java" revision="2011.10.22"
        reboot="false" priority="10" execute="once">

    <include package-id="JRE6" os="5\.0\.\d{4}"/>

    <include package-id="JRE7">
        <condition>
            <check type="logical" condition="not">
                <check type="host" condition="os" value="5\.0\.\d{4}"/>
            </check>
        </condition>
    </include>
</package>

'---code end
