We are currently deploying a WPF 4 app via click once and there is a scenario when the installation fails.

If the user does not have .Net 4.0 Full install and attempts to install our app the framework installs fine but the app fails to install. If we re-run the installation again the app installs fine.

Here is a copy of the log:

I'm baffled. Any ideas what this could be?
