I am using Sharp Develop 4.4.1 to create a wix installer package for my application. The WIX version is the one that came with Sharp Develop, namely version 3.8. My MSI project builds just fine. Now I want to include the MSI in a bundle. In the bundle, I want to check if .net 4.5 and ghostscript are installed (otherwise install it). The .net package check is a breeze using packagegroupref. So far so good.

However, I also want to check if Ghostscript is installed and intend to do this by doing a registry search. Since I am working in a Bundle, I am trying to use The Fragment element contains an unhandled extension element 'util:RegistrySearch'. Please ensure that the extension for elements in the 'http://ift.tt/18LfQpH' namespace has been provided. (CNDL0200) - d:\SharpDev Projects\NREOutlookTest1\AIFBundle\Setup.wxs:20

This is my bundle code:
