TestBot News: Missing dlls and VM updates

I reviewed the tests that are skipped because the dll is missing on Windows and I found 4 tests that are never run on Windows which makes them a bit pointless: * d3dcompiler_46 I can install version 43 and 47 from dxwebsetup.exe without trouble. But d3dcompiler_46.dll? No idea. * d3drm Is this a deprecated Direct 3D 8 dll? dxwebsetup.exe does not install it. * msvcr70 As far as I know this dll is part of the Visual Studio 7.0 runtime. But that runtime is nowhere to be found. * msvcrtd The test look like they succeed on test.winehq.org but in fact all they do is skip the tests: debug.c:45: Tests skipped: LoadLibraryA failed to load msvcrtd.dll with GLE=126 (where 126 == ERROR_MOD_NOT_FOUND) That's the debug version of the Visual C++ C library. As such it's not shipped by the runtime redistributables. Also, which C runtime does it correspond to? (iirc it was already there in the 90s) Note: I'd rather not download these dlls from the many 'not.trojan.horse.dlls.trust.me.com' websites. VM updates: * debiant The gst-plugins-base1.0-dev maintainer intentionally removed multi-arch support in version 1.20.3-2. As a result GStreamer support went missing in 32-bit builds when Wine's detection code was tweaked recently, which in turn caused a lot of new failures (bug 53977). So I hacked multi-arch support back in and the 32-bit tests are back to normal. Another point is that updating the X11 / Mesa packages causes the X server to crash during the Direct 3D tests. So for now that VM is frozen in time. That's all worrying for the future Debian 12. * w11pro64 I added a bunch of Visual Studio C runtime dlls, including msvcr71 which I got through the .Net 1.1 framework. I also added a number of Direct 3D dlls that don't ship with Windows by default. * w1064v1709 It seems this snapshot was not entirely idle so I retook it after Windows Update finished installing the already downloaded updates (see bug 54158). This does not seem to have made much of a difference :-( (particularly for bug 53227) * w1064v1909 Windows Defender was not disabled and was intefering with the tests from time to time. That's because 1909 is the first Windows version where Defender cannot be disabled and where I have to exclude the WineTest folder instead. This is fixed now. * w1064v2004 This snapshot also had some trouble with Windows Update not being idle so I retook it. This does not seem to have made much of a difference either :-( -- Francois Gouget <fgouget(a)codeweavers.com>
