Summary: Many applications require IE registry keys to install Product: Wine Version: CVS Platform: Other OS/Version: other Status: NEW Keywords: Installer Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: wine-misc AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: dank@kegel.com
Many applications refuse to install unless registry keys for IE4, 5, or 6 are installed.
These registry keys should probably be set by the Gecko autodownload process, there should probably be an easy way to trigger Gecko installation (it's not triggered at the moment by these installers), and packaged Wine should probably come with Gecko preinstalled.
