Just updating the launcher binary will not work in the future. An installation package approach is more advisable.
Possible solutions:
- Inno Setup on Windows
- .deb package on Linux
- .app package on Mac
- Custom solution using the same Manifest-Server model as the game installation

The current plan is to have a full binary build of launchpad in launcher/bin and simply download the entire thing if the launcher version changes - the total size is somewhere in the vicinity of 2kb, which is not a lot :P
