           Summary: World of Warcraft v3.3.0 login fails with C runtime
                    library load error
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.34
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: ntdll
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: ranguvar at archlinux.us


Upon login to World of Warcraft 3.3.0 (the first time worked fine, but now the
problem is reliably encountered), an error dialog appears with the following
text, and login does not occur.  Previous versions of WoW appear to work fine.

"Runtime Error!

Program: C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Wow.exe

R6034
An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly.
Please contact the application's support team for more information."

The Wine output when the error is hit is as follows:

"fixme:actctx:parse_assembly_elem wrong version for assembly manifest:
8.0.50727.762 / 8.0.50727.4053
fixme:actctx:parse_manifest_buffer failed to parse manifest L"C:\\Program
Files\\World of Warcraft\\Microsoft.VC80.CRT.manifest"
fixme:actctx:parse_depend_manifests Could not find dependent assembly
L"Microsoft.VC80.CRT" (8.0.50727.762)"

This is without any Winetricks installed.


This problem appears to only exist in Wine with WoW 3.3.0 (latest version). 
Others have confirmed this error on forums, etc:

Upon advice I found via Googling, I ran 'touch' on the named file in the World
of Warcraft directory, but this did not help.

The program continues to function, with an in-game message containing HTML code
as text advising the user to go to a Blizzard support page, but login does not
occur.
