Icon for msi

[pankajmjx]

Currently there is an option to add icon to executable(.exe) which is generated after installation of msi using below option -

 exe = Executable(script='xxx',
                 base=None,
                 target_name="xyz.exe",
                 icon = 'xyz.ico'
                 )

Is there any way to add icon to msi setup file itself?

This did not work.I tried running this sample locally ,the icon of msi generated is still default one as shown in screenshot.Is there anything extra i need to do along with this sample to replace this default icon?

Perhaps install_icon.
