           Summary: Wine does not extract files fast enough for programs to
                    perform actions on them
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-misc
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.com
        ReportedBy: Speeddymon at yahoo.com


See bug 717 and bug 1170 for more info, basically, during certain installs, 
there are operations that try to get performed on certain files that are 
extracted/created during the install.  In those certain installs, wine either 
does not do this fast enough or the installer is braindead and tries to perform 
actions on them before it tries to extract them (perhaps checking if the 
version that is already installed is up-to-date) and therefore causes wine to 
do unusual things.  2 installers I can think of are the msvb runtime installer 
mentioned in bug 1170, the starcraft installer mentioned in bug 717 and the AIM 
installer mentioned in the comments of bug 129.
