I'm about to import all the QFEs (>30) into the development database. With
all those patches, I wonder if they all have disjoint content. If two of
those patches each brings a new version of the same Windows component (e.g.
DLL), how and when are these conflicts resolved? Do I have to pay attention
to the order in which I import the QFEs into the database?
 
If you have several versions of a component, only the most
recent one - ie the one with the highest revision number -
is shown. Therefore the only thing you need to be aware of
when importing these QFEs is that you'll have to install
the update to the import system first.

They should all have different file names, or go to different repositories.
There is only one QFE that must be installed, but you can't install other
without it.

So you should not worry.
