It seems you treat users as dumb and that they never change way to do things and need to do the same thing they were doing in FB 1.5.
Just ask users, don't be shy.
Ok, but I myself had much more problems needing to installing CRTs (sometimes more than one with snapshots) to run Firebird.
Nobody prevents you to ask for solution here. Or offer yours one.
I myself still have a lot of problems every time I need to initialize the security database specially in Windows. Others agree and that still is not resolved from a long time. In your words "Firebird was destroyed" by someone.
See above
I myself never was able to do a trace. Ok, I'm dumb, the process and documentation should be "good" then.
The same. I don't remember any complain from you about trace, btw.
Well, you built ICU, maybe you can built it as statically library and solve the problem. The same way you did with tommath. Then our poor users will copy two files instead of more than two.
You trying to speculate on other issues to hide current one. It will not work. Issue will not disappear. So, all you can think on is to link fbclient with ICU statically ? You know it will not work without change a way of how ICU is loaded by the (i don't know how much number of) other pieces of code. Should i stop to ask you to think on this because you unable to accept and fix own mistakes ?
