Summary: All Steam installations fail Product: Wine Version: 1.2-rc5 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: phil.bordelon@gmail.com
As of either the client update or the move to -rc2 (I've tried it in every -rc from 2 until now), I cannot get installation of any purchased game on Steam to work.
Any attempt to install an application prints these errors on the console:
err:ole:CoGetClassObject class {9a5ea990-3034-4d6f-9128-01f3c61022bc} not registered err:ole:CoGetClassObject no class object {9a5ea990-3034-4d6f-9128-01f3c61022bc} could be created for context 0x1
and then Steam exits with error code 1.
I duplicated this trivially by moving my .wine directory away, installing a fresh instance of Steam, and attempting to install any already-purchased game. It immediately generated the same error.
Of course, this used to work at some point (considering Steam's Gold status at the moment).
