--- Comment #1 from Austin English austinenglish@gmail.com 2010-09-26 21:53:25 CDT --- Well, in wine-1.3.3-181-ge4182ea, opening gmail in firefox works fine. If I try to install voice/video, it tells me to install flash. After installing flash, it hangs when you login to gmail.
So, skipping that, the exe downloads (not sure if it's okay or not, it's 556 KB). Running it gives an 'Unknown installer error'. Installing native msxml3 doesn't fix it.
So, maybe still present, can't test.

--- Comment #2 from fracting fracting@gmail.com 2011-12-13 11:18:11 CST --- I can install latest GoogleVoiceAndVideoSetup.exe without any errors ( with builtin msxml3 )
$ sha1sum GoogleVoiceAndVideoSetup.exe 4c7492fffc0132854421329d0de9bcd64205d03c
wine-1.3.34-252-g3046768
Retested this bug with firefox5 and wine-1.3.34, plugins are installed to users/fracting/Application Data/Mozilla/plugins/
I'm not sure whether it is expected result.

--- Comment #3 from Austin English austinenglish@gmail.com --- With winetricks msxml3 and wine 1.7.15, running the installer gives 'Unknown Installer Error'.
[austin@localhost ~]$ sha1sum GoogleVoiceAndVideoSetup.exe 05c8273074cd53974f740b26507af25bdf1117c7 GoogleVoiceAndVideoSetup.exe [austin@localhost ~]$ du -h GoogleVoiceAndVideoSetup.exe 828K GoogleVoiceAndVideoSetup.exe

--- Comment #4 from Anastasius Focht focht@gmx.net --- Hello Austin,
--- quote --- running the installer gives 'Unknown Installer Error'. --- quote ---
you probably downloaded the bootstapper using native Firefox or other Linux browser. It's their 'Omaha' a.k.a. 'Google Update' that will get you an untagged installer.
Untagged installers must be supplied command line arguments otherwise it's expected to fail with 'Unknown Installer Error' message (hr = GOOPDATE_E_UNTAGGED_METAINSTALLER).
See: https://github.com/taxilian/omaha/tree/master/mi_exe_stub
Message: https://github.com/taxilian/omaha/blob/master/mi_exe_stub/mi_generated_resou...
In short: You must download the bootstrapper with Firefox browser from WINEPREFIX (binary compare the downloaded .exe signature with the direct download).
Regards
