           Summary: MS Orca does not install
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.14.
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-msi
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org

MS Orca is a tool from the windows platform sdk, it can be downloaded from 
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=484269E2-3B89-47E3-8EB7-1F2BE6D7123A&displaylang=en

or just get the orca package from the link on this MSDN blogger page

Orca is for examining the database tables in a .msi install package, I wanted to
use it to debug why the Lotus Notes 7 install does not work, but found that the
Orca package had the same issue. The installer dumps some stuff in the root of
.wine/drive_c/ because it fails to resolve directory names correctly. Some files
in the package are incorrectly resolved to intall in c:\ and some files don't
have a path at all and are skipped. I am going to continue tracing the problem,
it is somewhere in helper.c or action.c in the msi dll folder I think.
