You should always be evaluating one package against a group of already approved packages for conflicts.
Any resolutions that you perform will be against the package you are evaluating.
Post-Conflict Detection Evaluation
Once you are done performing conflict detection with all of your packages, you should have groups of packages
which can co-exist with each other.
Scanning for Dependencies
Scanning for dependencies generates a list of all of a package’s files that have dependencies with files used by
other products or operating systems in the Application Catalog.
If dependency information has not already been generated by the Patch Impact Analysis Wizard, you can generate
dependency information for a Windows Installer package by selecting it and selecting
Scan for dependencies
on the context menu.
