registry entry creation problems

[Kuba Ober]

Hi,

I'm trying to install some registry entries via a custom .inf file. Eventually 
the .inf file will do more than install registry entries, so I can't just use 
regedit and .reg files for the task. 

The relay shows that the entries were supposedly created without problems 
(retval == ERROR_SUCCESS), but subsequent runs of regedit show that nothing 
of the sort has happened. I've done it all on a fresh wine prefix, like so:

$ rpm -q wine-core
wine-core-0.9.16-2.fc4
$ rm -rf ~/wp
$ wineprefixcreate --wineprefix ~/wp
/vol1/home/kuba/wp updated successfully.
$ WINEDEBUG=relay WINPREFIX=~/wp wine rundll32 setupapi.dll,InstallHinfSection 
DefaultInstall 0 z:\\home\\kuba\\build.inf 2> log
$ WINEPREFIX=~/wp regedit /E z:\\home\\kuba\\foo.reg HKEY_CURRENT_USER

None of the keys from the .inf file appear in ~/foo.reg, even though the relay 
dump would have you think that their creation had succeeded. Manual creation 
of keys via
$ WINEPREFIX=~/wp regedit
works fine.

Below is the relay trace, with my annotations.

I'd appreciate any suggestions as to how to debug this.

Cheers, Kuba
