For reference, when I install office or visio on a clean prefix, I use winecfg to set msxml2, msxml6, and riched20 to native,builtin.
It makes sense to do that for riched20 since Office installs its own version of it, but doing so for msxml is useless - you need to actually install it.
When I use winetricks to install msxml6, office won't install. When I use winecfg to set it to native,builtin, it does install.
It installs just fine without any override at all.
I have no idea what's happening under the hood -- I just know what raindance makes Powerpoint start for me :)
For Powerpoint you only need to set riched20 to native,builtin or native, nothing more.
