Bug ID: 37830
           Summary: SteuerSparErklärung 2015: Installing with the
                    "USB-Installation" method fails
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.6.2
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal

Terminal output (fixme+all,err+all)

Background:
===========

SteuerSparErklärung (SSE) is a german tax program. It offers a "portable"
installation method called "USB-Installation". Beneath the installation on a
flash drive, this method especially targets a privacy oriented installation. If
no external flash drive is connected, the internal hard drive is used, but the
program is installed to a separate folder (i.e. not in "Program Files") and no
registry entries are made.

Bug description:
================

I've put translations in [brackets].

The installation of SSE 2015 with the "USB-Installation" method fails. The
installer displays an error message: 
  Fehler bei der Installation [Installation error]
  Path not found
  (Fehler code: 3) [Error code]
  Die Installation von SteuerSparErklärung 2015 Portable wird abgebrochen. [The
installation of "SteuerSparErklärung 2015 Portable" is getting cancelled."]

I attached the terminal output (fixme+all,err+all).

Further information:
====================

It doesn't matter if a USB flash drive is connected (and seen in wine as drive
E:) or not. Not connecting one is perfectly ok under windows.

SSE2015 officially supports WinXP.

The following line is only shown for this installation method, but not for the
default (no idea if it is relevant):
fixme:mountmgr:harddisk_ioctl Unsupported ioctl 2d1400 (device=2d access=0
func=500 method=0)

If I try with wine as Win7 I additionally get these lines (again not claiming
that they are important):
fixme:shell:SHGetLocalizedName L"C:\users" 0x33f2da 260 0x33f2cc: stub
fixme:shell:SHGetLocalizedName L"C:\users\jens" 0x33f2da 260 0x33f2cc: stub
fixme:shell:SHGetLocalizedName L"C:\users\jens\My Documents" 0x33f2da 260
0x33f2cc: stub
fixme:shell:SHGetLocalizedName L"C:\users\jens\My
Documents\Steuerf\00e4lle" 0x33f2da 260 0x33f2cc: stub

So far I could not find a workaround. For other reasons I normally use
"winetricks crypt32 riched20 vcrun2013" for SSE 2015.

System:
=======

Debian GNU/Linux 8.0 "Jessie" x86_64 + Debian's wine-development 1.7.33-1.
New, clean wineprefix.
The problem also exists under wine 1.6.2 and other distros (Arch Linux x86_64,
Peppermint Five).

Long version:

- Click "OK" in "WinZip Self-Extractor" [... Keep all windows open until the
installation is complete! ...].
- Click "Installation starten" in the next window (SteuerSparErklärung 2015:
Installation).
- Click "USB-Installation" [Installs on a USB flash drive] in the next window
(Installation >SteuerSparErklärung 2015<).
- Confirm "Informationen" [No storage device was found at the USB connector!
Hard disk C: was chosen as drive for the installation. Click on "Ändern"
[Change] in the installation window, to select another drive.].
- Click "Weiter >" [Continue] [this installs to
C:\SSE2015Portable\App\Steuerprogramm] in the next window (USB-Installation).
- Click "Weiter >" [Continue] in the next window (USB-Installation/Hinweise zur
USB-Installation) [Hints for the USB installation: the program will be
installed/copied completely to an external medium. There will be absolutely no
data saved on your computer. Therefore usage is possible on any Windows
computer. Installing on USB comes with some limitations: No links on the
desktop, No starter entries, No registration of the file types and therefore no
possibility to open a tax data file with a double click. ... You can always
save your data to a USB flash-drive, even if you've chosen the installation on
a hard drive. ...].
- Tick "Testversion installieren (mit Lohnsteuer-Ermäßigung)" [Install test
version (...)] in the next window (Installation >SteuerSparErklärung

- Choose "Ich akzeptiere die Bedingungen der Lizenzvereinbarung" [Accept

> SteuerSparErklärung 2015</Lizenzvereinbarung). The license text is not

displayed, see bug #37743.
... then the installation starts but finally fails with the error message.
