New version of chained package

Hello,

I defined some third party chained prerequisites in my package. There is a new version of this packages. The problem is, the third party MSI installs side by side of previous version. No upgrade will be performed. The best solution would be for me if the main installer removes all previous chained packages by upgrading itself and would after that install the new chained packages.
For example:
Installed on target computer is Main v1.0 witch Chained1 v1.0 and Chained2 v1.0. There are new Chained1 v2.0 and Chained2 v2.0 defined in Main v1.1. On upgrade from Main v1.0 to v1.1 should be Chained1 v1.0 + Chained2 v1.0 uninstalled first followed of installation of v2.0.

Is it possible?

Best regards,
Igor
