--- Comment #29 from Anastasius Focht <focht at gmx.net> ---
Hello folks,

refining summary, although I don't recommend component meta-bugs. They tend to
be messy in the end. People will chime in with other apps/games, requiring
different API implementation sets (helps one app, doesn't help/harms the other,
comments "still not fixed for <insert other app>" etc., preventing closure).

Be aware this is not a simple thing a la "cheat with some semi-stubs". To put
into perspective what is required have a look how 'httpapi' is used:

MS .NET Framework 4.7.2 Reference Source: 'System.Net.HttpListener' class which
uses 'httpapi':

https://github.com/Microsoft/referencesource/blob/master/System/net/System/Net/HttpListener.cs

The CoreFx implementation (a bit different on internals due to cross-platform
constraints):

https://github.com/dotnet/corefx/blob/master/src/System.Net.HttpListener/src/System/Net/Windows/HttpListener.Windows.cs

---

I've created a stable snapshot of the installer via Internet Archive in case
they change their mind and use different API.
