Bug ID: 38491
           Summary: Xvid codec installation fails with "error in tclkit
                    unknown color name SystemHighlight"
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.7.41
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: [e-mail]
          Reporter: [e-mail]
      Distribution: ---

I am unable to install Xvid codec Xvid-1.3.2-20110601.exe in wine-1.7.41.
It fails with "error in tclkit unknown color name SystemHighlight" message.
I am on Ubuntu 14.04.02 platform. I also tried it in a wide range of wine
versions, none of them worked. Might it be related to Tk installation in
Ubuntu?

I run into bug 37811 when I run the installer, but nothing about tclkit.

Please attach terminal output as a plain text file.

To my surprize when I try to install it on terminal like `~/.wine/drive_c$ wine
Xvid-1.3.3-20141019.exe &>log.txt` I don't get "error in tclkit unknown color
name SystemHighlight" GUI message, so it might be related to my Tcl/Tk
installation in my system? I haven't figured out how yet.

I run into that mfplat-MFTRegister bug in the end.

If you are unable to reproduce the issue then this is dupe of bug 37811 as
mentioned earlier.

Hello folks,

most likely OP has one or more environment settings (variables/paths) that
conflict with the Bitrock-based technology (tclkit) installer here.
Native stuff can easily sneak in via environment variables.

Next time you encounter this problem, set 'BITROCKDEBUG' environment variable
to '1' before running/clicking the installer to reveal more internal
debug/logging information (also opens interactive tcl shell).
If you use Desktop/Launcher make sure the environment variable is really
exported there.

Bug 37811 is completely unrelated here.

I unpacked and inspected the virtual filesystem contents from the executable
(vfs::cookfs::Mount Xvid-1.3.2-20110601.exe) but didn't find something
suspicious.
The color name 'SystemHighlight' is mapped to 'COLOR_HIGHLIGHT'
(user32.GetSysColor).

Anyway I can't reproduce this either.

Unless OP provides more detailed information about the Ubuntu 14.02.02 setup
(Desktop environment/Window manager used, Tcl/Tk installation/package list) and
exact steps how to reproduce "I downloaded/put <foo> to <location>", "I clicked
X" -> resolving 'WORKSFORME' here.

$ sha1sum Xvid-1.3.2-20110601.exe 
0a11498a96f75ad019c4c7d06161504140337dc0  Xvid-1.3.2-20110601.exe

$ du -sh Xvid-1.3.2-20110601.exe 
11M    Xvid-1.3.2-20110601.exe

$ wine --version
