--- Comment #12 from Robert M. Muncrief rmuncrief@comcast.net 2008-05-04 18:40:27 --- Thank you very much.
These patches fixed the MS Office install problem for me, and I was able to install and run my entire suite of Windows programs, with the exception of Steam games. However, this is not do to a regression error, Valve unfortunately updated their Steam Client yesterday so that Steam games no longer run under Wine. But I'll file a bug report about that later if one hasn't already been created.
Once again, thank all of you for so quickly remedying this problem.
