So far, everything works, except when you try to install a package that already is installed (of any version, so this also breaks upgrades via the package manager) Package manager starts up, presents you with a disloag (like aother package install) but when it goes to copy files, it open a dialog box with the error "Cannot Open AVI" with buttons which are clipped off (the window is a bit too small, push the farthest to the left to makei t resize and such.) It should be noted that a manual upgrade can be done by untarring the DevPak (it's a .tar.bz2) and copying the files manually, if the directory names aren't mangled. For some odd reason some files won't compile, yet others do, i can't explain it. Must be a MingW bug.

Is Dev-C++ using MinGW or the native gcc?
MinGW, it cannot use the native gcc AFAIK. Also note that the MinGW it uses is self-contained, and is distributed with the IDE. You can upgrade it using update packages. I'll email you a copy of Dev-C++ if you wish to use it..
Hi,
Package manager starts up, presents you with a disloag (like aother package install) but when it goes to copy files, it open a dialog box with the error "Cannot Open AVI" I've seen simmilar problems with other apps. They want to load an copy animation video from the windows dir, but can't find it.
Time to add some more artwork to wine? Stefan

Could it be that it is trying to load the resource 160 of shell32.dll? This resource is an AVI that is meant to be played when you copy files: it shows sheets jumping from one folder to another. If so the tricky thing is getting an animation that plays ok in Wine and is of a reasonable size. -- Francois Gouget <fgouget(a)free.fr> http://fgouget.free.fr/ May your Tongue stick to the Roof of your Mouth with the Force of a Thousand Caramels.
There is a freeware program called Total Copy that you might be able to convince the author to let you have the source (or to at least let you use the animation).. He doesn't actively develop it anymore, and it would be nice to have our own copy dialog anyways.. I use total copy on my windows machine all the time, I just wish I could make it _replace_ the standard copy dialog, but right dragging and clicking is ok too.. Tom Francois Gouget wrote:

A single empty frame or so might suffice to start with... -f.r.
