             Bug #: 30735
           Summary: MS Office 2000 SR1 installs unusable
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.5.4
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: msi
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: ubrammer at t-online.de
    Classification: Unclassified


Installation of Office 2000 SR1 at wine 1.5.4 works with a success message. But
the programs excel and word die silently latest after the first mousemovement.

Further digging in reveals:
Installing MS office 2000 SR1 does not install due to bug
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29335 .
This bug can be avoided bei copying the contents of the system-folder into
windows/system32 and also installing mfc42 with winetricks.

Using the above workaround gave the following: The installer crashes from
wine-1.3.7 up to 1.5.3 with another bug. The crash was fixed in wine 1.5.4 by
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30571 but the fix did not solve the
unusable installation of office 2000.

The first bad commit regarding bug 30571 is commit
19a2d144b563f23dacfb127b94948b0f0f89b003

msi: Don't rebuild the target path for files from global assembly components.

Reverting this commit results in a good install until 
commit:2a59f016dbe716aaefec9ab94d47d7b8172d0b5b

mountmgr: Add dynamic devices support using UDisks.

Wine with this commit compiled in, give an unusable office 2000 installation. A
Wine version before this commit give a good office 2000 installation.
A wineprefix with a good installation is usable in later versions of wine,
which will not give a good installation.

I could not revert commit 2a59f016dbe716aaefec9ab94d47d7b8172d0b5b on top of
wine 1.5.4. So I made logs of the install with the bisected version.
