Hello,

can't reproduce.

No need to install full blown Visual Studio 2008 (9.0) ...
Use Microsoft Platform SDK v6.1 and select only build tools to cut down
download/install size.

You can use winetricks for that step or manually:

Download:
http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?DisplayLang=en&id=1131...
Prerequisite: winetricks -q mfc42 dotnet20

I took "tcpanalyzer.exe.manifest" and "tcpanalyzer.exe" from
"$WINEPREFIX/drive_c/Program Files/Microsoft SDKs/Windows/V6.0A/bin" folder as
example.

Embedding the manifest into PE file:

--- snip ---
$ pwd
/home/focht/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Microsoft SDKs/Windows/v6.1/Bin

$ wine ./mt.exe -manifest tcpanalyzer.exe.manifest
-outputresource:tcpanalyzer.exe 
Microsoft (R) Manifest Tool version 5.2.3790.2075
Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation 2005. 
All rights reserved.
--- snip ---

Extracting again:

--- snip ---
$ wine ./mt.exe -inputresource:tcpanalyzer.exe -out:extracted.manifest
Microsoft (R) Manifest Tool version 5.2.3790.2075
Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation 2005. 
All rights reserved.
--- snip ---

Verify extracted manifest against input using diff tool:

--- snip ---
$ diff -Naur tcpanalyzer.exe.manifest extracted.manifest 
--- tcpanalyzer.exe.manifest    2008-01-08 17:19:26.000000000 +0100

Looks good.

$ wine --version
