Hi,
first of all thanks to Andreas, Daniel and Gerard for your quick replies!

yep - with the patch by Dmitry you mentioned, it worked slightly better.
Slightly better means, it runs into the next bug / unimplemented feature:
After the progress bars for extracting have run through nicely, a window
pops up and tells me that "The InstallShield Engine (iKernel.exe) could
not be launched (0x80070005)". The file ikernel.exe exists in my windows
directory structure; I guess the problem is related to the following
messages:
fixme:ole:LoadTypeLibEx registration of typelibs not supported yet!
fixme:ole:TLB_ReadTypeLib Header type magic 0x47544c53 not supported.
err:ole:TLB_ReadTypeLib Loading of typelib c:\program files\common
files\installshield\engine\6\intel 32\ikernel.exe failed with error
0x00000006
Can anyone tell me what they mean and if there's a chance to get the stuff
running ? I tried several combinations of native DLLs; in some cases,
the above error message did not occur, but the program doesn't run
properly either... If it helps, I can post a more detailed description
what happens then.
BTW, what about these fixmes - can I safely ignore them or are they
important ? fixme:pthread_kill_other_threads_np
Cheers,
Chriss
