SharePoint (WSS 3.0 & MOSS 2007) SDK Updated August 2008 (v1.4)

Microsoft just posted an update of the WSS 3.0 & MOSS ~~2008~~ 2007 SDKs. As always they come in two flavors, online & downloadable offline CHMs:

WSS 3.0 SDK (online)
WSS 3.0 SDK (downloadable CHM v1.4)
MOSS 2007 SDK (online)
MOSS 2007 SDK (downloadable CHM v1.4)

This update has some great new and updated content:

Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 - new content
- NEW: Programmatically working with backup/restore
- UPDATED: to the Web Parts section
- NEW: Externally storing BLOBs in WSS (storing data on the disk vs. doc library... make sure you read the Operational Limits & Trade-Off Analysis paper... IMHO, this capability should be used in only the most extreme circumstances as it adds a significant amount of complexity to your deployment)
- NEW: section on Selective Content Migration (sweet!!!)
Office SharePoint Server 2008 - new content
- NEW: Federated Search ... LOTS of content here

Are you really calling this MOSS 2008 (??) as you mention here in the first sentence and in the list of updated content?

I was trying to install the infrastructure update for MOSS which was sent out in July. However, I am getting the error

"There are no products affected by this package installer on this system"
and installer quits.

The weird thing was I was able to install them in QA enivronment, but when I try it in Prod farm I am getting the error. The noticeble difference between the farms was Office Sharepoint Server 2007 SDK and Office 2007 Sharepoint designer SP1.

I never seen this error before.
