           Summary: Wine should be able to run/execute/install MSI files
                    directly
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.33
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: loader
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: t.artem at mailcity.com


Right now if you

$ wine package.msi

it will just

"Segmentation fault"

I believe, since msiexec is hidden under $PREFIX/lib/wine/msiexec.exe.so and
can only be run via "wine msiexec /i installer.msi" (which is at best very
tiresome), it would be much more convenient just to automatically call MSI
installer if wine itself is called with .MSI package as the only argument.
