Summary: IBM Firmware Unpacker Fails
Product: Wine
Version: 0.9.20.
Platform: PC
URL: http://www-
3.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-
42215
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: wine-msi
AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
ReportedBy: deskstarwinebug at mytrashmail.com
This bug relates to installer/archiver issues. It's typical of vendor supplied
"Windows only" device firmware updates. The device here is a class of IBM hard
disks. You don't need to own one to duplicate this bug, it is purely archive
extraction.
The URL gives a self-extracting EXE named pz2z18us.exe. This self-extracting
archive unpacks a setup program and cab files. The inner setup program fails.
It is supposed to create a bootable floppy disk. It doesn't get that far.
Tested on a fresh install of Ubuntu 6.0.6.1 x86 (32 bit) with a fresh install of
WINE 0.9.20. This is in fact the first WINE test I ran, so there was no prior
WINE corruption at all.
I have a stack dump but you should also be able to generate your own.
Forgive me if this bug is already in the database, I did look. I know you have
been working hard on MSI and installer issues so I thought you would appreciate
this report, whether it bears directly on that or not. If I put the wrong
category please correct.
