Summary: MS Orca does not install
Product: Wine
Version: 0.9.14.
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: wine-msi
AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org

MS Orca is a tool from the windows platform sdk, it can be downloaded from
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=484269E2-3B89-47E3-8EB7-1F2BE6D7123A&displaylang=en
or just get the orca package from the link on this MSDN blogger page

Orca is for examining the database tables in a .msi install package, I wanted to
use it to debug why the Lotus Notes 7 install does not work, but found that the
Orca package had the same issue. The installer dumps some stuff in the root of
.wine/drive_c/ because it fails to resolve directory names correctly. Some files
in the package are incorrectly resolved to intall in c:\ and some files don't
have a path at all and are skipped. I am going to continue tracing the problem,
it is somewhere in helper.c or action.c in the msi dll folder I think.
