Hello,
It seems that there is an issue with registering local utilities on a
Product install. It seems that on a product reinstall, the local utility is
re-registered. In doing so, you lose all data that the local utility was
managing.

Although, from what I've found, this is not the problem. By stepping
through the code, I found in this context, the local utility no longer
exists. So at some point in the install reinstall process it is
unregistered.
Looking deeper, I found that in the reinstall of a product the method
_cascadeRemove() is called from
Products.CMFQuickInstallerTool.InstalledProduct that unregisters all
utilities.

I don't know how to go about fixing this problem since the infrastructure is
not set up to handle this. Realistically, if there is an uninstall of a
component needed, I would think it could be handled in the
Products.GenericSetup.components class.
Any ideas to help me get around this problem would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Nathan Van Gheem
