<package
id="maxima"
name="Maxima 5.14.0"
revision="1"
reboot="false"
priority="1">
<check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="Maxima 5.14.0" />
<upgrade cmd="%SOFTWARE%\maxima-5.14.0a.exe /SILENT /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES" />
<install cmd="%SOFTWARE%\maxima-5.14.0a.exe /SILENT /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES" />
<remove cmd="%PROGRAMFILES%\maxima\uninst\unins000.exe /SILENT" />
</package>
</source>
Hints: If there is a new version, every occurrence of the version number has to be adjusted. You can add the following switches for an individual installation:
* /VERYSILENT instead of /SILENT to prevent users from aborting install (you can do the same for the uninstall program)
* /LANG=de for installation language (insert a valid language code for your language)
* /DIR=%PROGRAMFILES%\Maxima\ if you don't want Maxima to be installed into a folder containing the version number
* /GROUP=Math\Maxima to put the start menu group in a subfolder (and to rename it)
* /MERGETASKS=!desktopicon if you don't want the wxMaxima desktop icon to be installed
