    ****************************************************************
    After ESA with enablement iFix is installed, the iFix can not
    be uninstalled before the ESA is uninstalled. Currently, the
    Installation Manager will uninstall interim fixes first and
    then uninstall ESA features. This will fail if there are
    installed ESAs with enablement iFixes.
