Thanks for posting this information. It allowed me to uninstall the .NET Framework 2.0 SP2. It’s hard to believe that Microsoft’s error message could be so bad. If I didn’t know better, I would think that they had intentionally designed it to frustrate and punish their users.

true enough… Other systems are not spared. From my experience though, on Ubuntu, apt-get/dpkg makes the installing/uninstalling/dependency checks much smoother than the “standard” windows way of doing it. (might have changed in vista though).

The .Net 3.5 framework actually uses the 2.0 CLR, as well as some BCL classes for LINQ. Requirements for 3.5 are 2.0 Framework with SP1, and the 3.0 SP1 package.

Lewz I tested it just a few minutes ago. I uninstalled all previous versions of the Microsoft .net Framework and downloaded and installed the Microsoft .net Framework 3.5 afterward.

The Microsoft .net Framework 2 Service Pack 1 and the Microsoft .net Framework 3 Service Pack 1 were automatically installed as well.

Lewz Microsoft .net Framework 3.5 includes .NET Framework 2.0 service pack 1 and .NET Framework 3.0 service pack 1.

I guess you still end up with three separate installations.

@Martin: i hear that the .net framework 3.0 = .net 2.0 + winfx (windows presentation foundation, windows communication foundation, etc), and .net 3.5 = .net 3.0 + language integrated query and some extensions. you cannot install .net 3.5 without the previous two, as they both depend on it. hope this explains things.
