Screenshot of error msg

Getting terminal output as below during setup:
fixme:actctx:parse_depend_manifests Could not find dependent assembly
L"Microsoft.VC90.CRT" (9.0.21022.8)

Then after game is installed and the patching process launched, a small popup
appears that says "Title-Missing Software-, MSVC++ 2008 Redist not found Click
here to download Do you wish to continue?" (see screenshot).

After running winetricks vcrun2008, the problem disappears.

Hello,

can't reproduce.

Your console log indicates that the app tried to load VC++ runtime through PE
embedded manifest references.
Wine's msvcr90 (fake) manifest resources were added with commit
http://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git/commitdiff/227f87fc7dd13c27f2f3c04eae4...

The current (bootstrapper) installer shows an option to install VC++ 2008
runtime.
Most likely this option was not present in previous versions of Rift
installers.

I've not seen any MsiQueryProductState() calls in trace logs and think this
install option should also show up for Windows (even with VC++ runtime already
installed).
They didn't bother to check for support libraries product codes.

If the user deliberately chose not to install VC++ runtime and there is no
runtime -> user fault.
Wine has it's own msvc*90 dlls now, although incomplete and lacking several
API.
You will most likely run into one of the existing bug reports if you chose to
skip vcredist.

Login and updating/patching works fine here.
At least nice speeds ... the updater capped at 5.5 MiB/s from my home line,
downloaded 10 GiB.

$ sha1sum Rift_LIVE_Patcher_setup.exe 
03789429002ee3bcc1209279398e39620a4456cd  Rift_LIVE_Patcher_setup.exe

$ wine --version
wine-1.3.37

So make sure you tick "Visual C++ 2008 runtime" in bootstrap installer
otherwise you encounter Wine msvc*90 insufficiencies.

Regards
