[Bug 28065] New: Garshasp: The Monster Slayer installer bailing out: OS is very old and not supported

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28065

Summary: Garshasp: The Monster Slayer installer bailing out: OS
                    is very old and not supported
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.3.26
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

After launching the installer for the game I can get past the language
selection screen, EULA, components and destination directory selection screens.
The problem arises when the actual file copying should begin: the installer is
aborted with the following error message:
'Your operating system is very old and not supported.'
Afterwards the installer quits.

Terminal output doesn't show anything suspicious.
I tried the installer by setting various Windows versions in Wine
(Vista/Seven/2008) with the same result.
Wine-1.0.1, 1.2.3, ... produce the same error message.

I was able to install the game successfully in a WinXP SP3 guest (running under
Virtualbox).
The game officially supports XP / Vista / Seven.

No demo available.

Please let me know if you need a log with specific debug channels enabled.

Yes, that did the trick and the installer could finish it's job properly. Is
that missing registry key so rarely used that no one else bumped into similar
problem before?

I guess so. Nevertheless it should still be fixed, and registry key should be
added to tools/wine.inf.in by default (under [VersionInfo]).
Are you able to fix it yourself (send patch)?

Well..I have never submitted patches to Wine not even so trivial ones. Can you
do that for me?
Thanks in advance.

The patch was rejected, Alexandre said the key would need to be updated when
the version is changed in winecfg which makes sense.

I don't really know how and where exactly in the code this has to be done
though, so for now i can't really fix this bug
