Patch creation

Hi!

I have a very weird problem during installation of our newest patch. Some of our product's files changed and some new libraries are added.

The first installation of the patch succedes but nothing changes in the program's directory. Starting the installation using an advertised link makes MSI repair the application. After that, the newly added files the patch contains appear in the directory.
Executing the patch a second time now does patch the existing files. The application runs and everything is like it should be.

Any ideas what might be wrong?

Thanks in advance,
Alex
