Summary: failed to install python-2.4.2.msi from www.python.org
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.8.
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-msi
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

Trying to install python-2.4.2.msi from

http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.4.2/python-2.4.2.msi

with wine's msiexec fails (0.9.8; nothing else installed, .wine directory
produced by having called wine once). The installer starts up, but terminates
with the message "Python 2.4.2 setup ended prematurely ..." after passing
through some pages of the dialog (I chose "install for all users" and accepted
the defaults for the remaining options). I started the installer by

WINEDEBUG=warn+all wine .wine/drive_c/windows/system32/msiexec.exe -I
python-2.4.2.msi 2> msi_error.txt

I hope you are able to reproduce this. I am using Linux, Debian sarge/i386
2.6.15. Using the Microsoft installer, I am able to install Python without problems.

All the best! Ulf
