Summary: IBM Firmware Unpacker Fails Product: Wine Version: 0.9.20. Platform: PC URL: http://www- 3.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR- 42215 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: wine-msi AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: deskstarwinebug@mytrashmail.com
This bug relates to installer/archiver issues. It's typical of vendor supplied "Windows only" device firmware updates. The device here is a class of IBM hard disks. You don't need to own one to duplicate this bug, it is purely archive extraction.
The URL gives a self-extracting EXE named pz2z18us.exe. This self-extracting archive unpacks a setup program and cab files. The inner setup program fails. It is supposed to create a bootable floppy disk. It doesn't get that far.
Tested on a fresh install of Ubuntu 6.0.6.1 x86 (32 bit) with a fresh install of WINE 0.9.20. This is in fact the first WINE test I ran, so there was no prior WINE corruption at all.
I have a stack dump but you should also be able to generate your own.
Forgive me if this bug is already in the database, I did look. I know you have been working hard on MSI and installer issues so I thought you would appreciate this report, whether it bears directly on that or not. If I put the wrong category please correct.
