Bug #: 30276 Summary: Steam installer crashes after clicking first Next button Product: Wine Version: 1.4 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: packagemonkey@yahoo.com Classification: Unclassified
Created attachment 39550 --> http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=39550 backtrace from SteamInstall.msi
I've been unable to install Steam for some time, across multiple versions of Wine dating back maybe six months. Current version is 1.4. I run the installer, downloaded from the Steam site, as follows:
$ wine msiexec /i SteamInstall.msi
It starts the installer and displays the first dialog, with Next and Cancel buttons. When I click Next, it crashes with the attached backtrace.
In trying again to check a few things for this bug report, I noticed it says:
+----------------------------------------+ | Steam Setup + +----------------------------------------+ | Resuming the Steam Installation Wizard | | | | Are you ready to have the Installation | | Wizard continue the installation? | | | +----------------------------------------+ | | Next> | | Cancel | | +----------------------------------------+
So possibly the problem is with leftovers from a previous installation attempt. I don't know how to clear them out, though.
