Summary: NSIS installer shows new version's display name in
prompt to uninstall
Description:
When CPACK_NSIS_ENABLE_UNINSTALL_BEFORE_INSTALL is set, the installer checks for
a previously installed version. If it detects one, it displays a prompt to
uninstall that reads "X is already installed." However, X is the display name
for the new version that is about to be installed, not for the old version that
is already installed. This is bound to confuse users. I'm submitting a patch
to read the display name for the old version from the registry and display it in
the message box.
