Bug Description

[Impact]
 * prevents msiexec from working
 * msiexec is pretty important for installing most software
 * this upload contains the patch that got pulled into the debian wine package

[Test Case]
 * [can someone affected please attach a good test case?]
 * run "wine msiexec -i ActivePython-2.7.8.10-win32-x86.msi" and verify that it does not work with the original version and that it does work with the update

[Regression Potential]
 * low, patch is upstream and in debian

It seems to me this has to do with wine being compiled with gcc 4.9

I can confirm that GCC-4.9.0 likewise fails on my system. Although I didn't perform the test cited by Austin English, the error at runtime when launching firefox with pipelight/wine shows these errors

err:msidb:get_tablecolumns column 1 out of range
err:msidb:get_tablecolumns column 2 out of range
[...]

I rolled back through to wine-1.17.14 (including omitting the xattr patch from the pipelight project [http://fds-team.de/cms/projects.html]). In all cases, using GCC-4.9.0 led to the "get_tablecolumns column X out of range". Since I always keep one previous compiler version available, building with GCC-4.8.2 solved the problem both with the patched wine sources and the plain vanilla code.

By the way, I tried again compiling again with GCC-4.9.0 with CFLAGS set to "-O0 -march=i686" to no avail. My normal CFLAGS are "-O2 -march=native".

I just tried "winetricks vcrun2010" using the arch package wine-1.7.19-2-x86_64 and it worked fine for me.
Can you please try again in a clean prefix?

I had run it using a clean wineprefix beforehand, but to be sure I reinstalled the package (which had another update relating to some other bug), rebooted my machine, and made another clean wineprefix. Same problem (attached).

Ah(!), false alarm.

It seems that a part of the solution was adding an optional dependency to wine on x86_64, namely lib32-libxslt. After installing that (which pulled lib32-libxml2 as another dep), vcrun2010 installs just fine.

Sorry about that. This particular issue now seems to be fixed for me.

I can also confirm the efficacy of the patch. And the correction properly deals with the change made in GCC-4.9.0, ``Null pointer checks may be optimized away more aggressively'' shown here:

Hello folks,

this is issue is still present with Wine 1.6.x versions provided by some distros which use gcc 4.9 by default.

I see this specific problem reported every few months in #winehq.
The recommendation is to tell the user upgrade to Wine 1.7.x which fixes a lot of other things (the choice is not that bad in the end).

Anyway, since there won't be Wine 1.6.3 it might to useful to inform Wine package maintainers of this issue (who didn't get the message/are aware of this) and force them to provide an updated "stable" Wine 1.6.2 package with the patch backported.

The above mentioned bug is a dupe of https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36139.

This bug causes quite many windows programs to fail to install with wine. Upstream suggests in the bugreport to reach out for the packagers, what seems not to have happened yet, so here we are. (ARCH and Debian already fixed it in their 1.6 packages.)

It affects wine in utopic (and probably vivid) , but afaik not trusty (I assume there an older gcc is used).

Debian (bugs.debian.org/765645 in 1.6.2-12) and ARCH (bugs.archlinux.org/task/40310 in 1.6.2 rel -2) already fixed it.

Ubuntu has https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wine1.6/+bug/1383214
I just updated that report.

I got it working.

$ wine --version

I recommend you use a newer version of wine :) go to the website and check
how to install the latest version rather than that i the repo perhaps?

Note that in 15.10, at the moment, wine can't be installed at all - either 1.6x or 1.7x. I'll have to wait a bit longer. Not sure, but I think with the number of changes, a new version of wine is going to have to be built and packaged before there is any chance. Maybe this time, 15.10 will actually be released with a fully working wine next October. Here's hoping!

Hello Michael Clark (the previous message was directed at Michael Vogt)

This problem just appears if Wine is compiled with GCC 4.9. When Wine 1.6 was released this wasn't the case. So Ubuntu (and other dists) introduced this bug when they compiled with the "wrong" GCC. Just have a look at the upstream bug report, especially https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36139#c17 where upstream said that this should be fixed by the distros because there won't be a 1.6.3.

Anyway, this is a bug which makes Wine1.6 in Trusty unusable in many cases, while it is easy to solve with low regression potential as Michael Vogt correctly indicated.

I'm well aware of the fact that this was fixed in 1.7.20, and that you can install a recent version from the PPA.
Still I think a LTS shouldn't go with a broken Wine, even if it is just in Universe. Therefore my pledge to Michael Vogt.

Brian Murray (brian-murray) wrote : Please test proposed package

Hello Rob, or anyone else affected,

Accepted wine1.6 into vivid-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wine1.6/1:1.6.2-0ubuntu8.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance!

Hello folks,

refining summary to collect more dupes here.
I removed the wine-test part to avoid overly long summary since it's rarely run by the end user.

What matters is the error message from running real world app/game installers to be found in Wine Bugzilla (live)search.

Regards
