There are times where you have to deploy a Stand Alone update file as a pre-req for a Software Package, in order to “Link” the packages together using the dependency feature of the Application Model can be a challenge because now you have to find a detection method for the Update.
This is how I do my SCCM Detection Methods to verify if a HotFix is installed.
