Bug comments restored from Gmane.org: 
 
Some installers, when running in wine, install items with the correct case -   
but for some reason wine doesn't keep the correct case, and makes it all   
lowercase.   
   
This has caused problems in some installers I have run.   
   
One example is Family Tree Maker 9.0   
- This installer creates a file called TextEditor.dll - but when it is  
installed, it ends up being called texteditor.dll (note the lack of capitals)  
- and Family Tree maker gets confused at that.  
  
I realise that most people will not have this application - but i'm sure there  
are other examples around.

I guess this bug is invalid, since I suspect that the reporter isn't using 
"win95" as the "Filesystem" mode setting (case-*insensitive* file handling) 
in the config file. 
Feel free to reopen it in case you *are* using "win95" FS mode and for some 
reason it really doesn't properly handle filename case sensitivity.
