MDT 2008 Bug - Dynamic Application Deployment

Just wanted to post on a bug i found in MDT a few weeks back.  If you are working with Dynamic Applications, then you know that you can call applications in customsettings.ini through packages001=(packID):(program name), you can also call packages in the MDT database through a role, make and model, or however you want.  What's important to note is your capitlization, basically what will happen is that if you don't have your entires match, you will end up with the same package twice when ZTIPackages processes.

 For example:

[Customsettings.ini]

Packages001=SZ000011:Per-system Unattended

[say, a role package]

Packages001=sz000011:Per-system Unattended

 

What you will see in your logs is that you will have

Packages001 is now SZ000011....

Packages002 is now sz000011...

 

I emailed Tim Mintner about the bug and i believe it will be fix, but just wanted to post about incase anyone else sees this.
