Summary: RemoveFile and Name=''

Initial Comment:
When I compile a very simple fragment with a line like
this:
          <RemoveFile Id='CaptureClientInstall.msi'
LongName='Capture Recorder Client Install.msi'
On='install' Name=''/>

I get the following error:

C:\>\jth\wix\candle.exe CaptureClientInstall.wxs
Microsoft (R) Windows Installer Xml Compiler version
2.0.3309.0
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation 2003. All rights

CaptureClientInstall.wxs
C:\CaptureClientInstall.wxs(15) : error CNDL0006 : The
RemoveFile/@Name attribute's value cannot be an empty
string.  If you want the value to be null or empty,
simply remove the entire attribute.



But when I correct it as instructed, I get an error
telling me the opposite :)
