           Summary: Microsoft Office 2007 does not install with default
                    rpcrt4.dll
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.60
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: root at cybikbase.com


This bug is puzzling. With a freshly-installed (from budgetdedicated, i'm on
Hardy Heron) Wine 0.9.60, I can start the Office 2007 installation, and it
technically works. Entering data, choosing everything, all that works.

But when going to install said files, it doesn't progress. When checking in the
terminal in which the installer was manually launched, the (builtin) rpcrt4.dll
file makes it crash.

Here's where it gets weird: on a tutorial, it is said that CXGames' rpcrt4.dll
makes the thing install. I get the source, get rpcrt4.dll.so to compile, copy
it to my .wine/drive_c/windows/system32, and voilà, it installs. Then, delete
it, and now it runs! It won't install with the STOCK Wine rpcrt4.dll, but it
does with the CXG rpcrt4.dll, and the reverse is true for running the app.

I don't want to sound like a whiny bitch, but can someone investigate this?
(I'd SO like to just shatter the minds of my friends by launching the setup.exe
of office 2007 on Linux, install it, and get it working right under their eyes.
So awesome a feeling it would be.)


Trace of wine-dbg available on demand. Actually, I'll be happy to provide
everything needed to track this down.
