I am using Office 97 with Wine. Whenever I try inserting an object (Insert -> Object...)

--- Comment #3 from Ronny Standtke Ronny.Standtke@gmx.net 2008-09-10 02:48:51 --- I think, this is not really a duplicate of Bug#7026 where I initially reported that Wine is crashing. Now Wine is not crashing any more but generating an ole error. Bug#7026 was set to RESOLVED FIXED because Wine is no longer crashing. But inserting objects still does not work. So what am I suppoded to do here without stepping on someone's toes?
I was told that I should open new bugs if the remaining problem is to far away from the initial bug report. See here: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9537#c34
Feel free to establish any bug reporting/closing/cloning policy as long as it is consistent and makes sense.

Why shouldn't I do that (honest question)?! To quote http://www.bugzilla.org/docs/tip/en/html/bugreports.html#cloningbugs "This allows you to track more easily similar concerns in a new bug." This is a valid reason IMHO.

The word "clone" means the same thing. In bugzilla terms this means a duplicate bug. If the bug you are adding somehow depends on an existing (possibly fixed) bug just explain how. Explaining clearly your intentions always helps better understand what is going on.

Sorry, but I am very surprised to hear such bold statements from someone who is supposedly a long-term developer, but that statement above is just not true. Clones and duplicates are different concepts in bugzilla. Read the documentation.

I thought that everybody here is familiar with the concept of bug clones and what they intend. Looks like this is not true. I will try to be more verbose next time.

In Wine bugzilla we don't use all the full blown bugzilla features, some of them are confusing, some are redundant, some are buggy. It's always a good idea to provide as much context as possible to avoid any confusion.

--- Comment #9 from Rob Shearman robertshearman@gmail.com 2008-10-06 09:33:58 --- DllGetClassObject in ole32 should handle the case of being called with an unknown CLSID that is registered with the InProcHandler32 key being "ole32.dll" in the registry and in this case call OleCreateDefaultHandler or the equivalent.
