--- Comment #157 from Sebastian Lackner sebastian@fds-team.de --- Time for more testing! :) I have just updated the patches:
https://github.com/compholio/wine-compholio/tree/namedpipe/patches/kernel32-... (requires ./tools/make_requests)
The main remaining problem with the installers was that they try to change the named pipe handle state before a client has connected (which fails, because only a pseudo_fd has been assigned at that point). The updated patchset stores the state in the server until the socket is finally created. Besides that I've also cleaned up and reordered some parts, and have added support for nonblocking named pipe modes.
I've tested with PDFXChange Editor and the Windows 8 SDK so far. In both cases the patches let it start properly, but in order to finish the installation successfully, you'll also need Erichs ACL patches:
https://github.com/compholio/wine-compholio/tree/master/patches/server-Store... https://github.com/compholio/wine-compholio/tree/master/patches/server-Inher... https://github.com/compholio/wine-compholio/tree/master/patches/server-Misc_... https://github.com/compholio/wine-compholio/tree/master/patches/shell32-Defa... (requires ./tools/make_requests and autoreconf, run ./configure with --with-xattr)
For those that want to test with _all_ the patches I mentioned above - here is a merged patchfile: http://ix.io/dQC
