1033 is LANG_ENGLISH. 1045 is LANG_POLISH. I suspect your language settings aren't getting interpreted correctly. What's the LANG environment variable set to?
Actually I have unset LANG/LC_ALL, with Polish locale it works fine, but why it is based on locale, not on registry entries, etc? I think it is possible to install Polish Power Point Viewer in English Windows (I can check it on Monday) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Have you tried setting your locale to Polish and running the installer (as well as installing in Polish windows)?
as I said in comment #5 it works in wine with proper locale - so Polish PPV works with Polish locale and English PPV works with English locale. I tried Polish PPV in English Windows and it doesn't work. I can try English PPV in Polish Windows if you want me to... but we can predict what will happen... As I said in comment #7 Wine behavior is similar to Windows behavior. However I think we can do better than Windows and don't quit silently but inform user about issue. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

I don't want to change behavior... but it would be nice to have warn in console about it... otherwise we might have more bug reports like that... anyway... it is invalid... -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

At least that it can't find dll in directory.

At least that it can't find dll in directory.
Wine does print a message if it can't find a library an executable being loaded depends on. If Wine starts issuing warnings for every failed LoadLibrary call that would add a lot of confusion without any real improvement.
And if we know that path is based on locale warn about it too.
You know it only for this particular case, we can't assume that every path with 1033 or 1045 in it will cause the trouble. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

yes, that's true
And if we know that path is based on locale warn about it too.
You know it only for this particular case, we can't assume that every path with 1033 or 1045 in it will cause the trouble.
I haven't checked source yet but we got 1033 or 1045 from somewhere, so I think we know that path is based on locale or not... but I might be wrong
