--- Comment #47 from Dan Kegel dank@kegel.com 2008-01-26 09:24:21 --- It's fair to give users workarounds. My favorite workaround would be to point them at a set of applications which, if any one is installed, will fix the problem by installing a copy of mfc42. Winetricks is an ok workaround too but it's kind of command-line-y, and it relies on goodwill from Microsoft, so I wouldn't push it on end users.
