Feedback for http://people.ubuntu.com/~onkarshinde/gnusim8085-1.3.7-installer.exe
1. It does not seem to detect, and thus warn of, existing installation of GNUSim8005 2. On my 64-bit computer, it installs at C:\Program Files\GNUSim8085 - but, being a 32-bit installer, it should be installing into "C:\Program Files (x86)" 3. At the end of -installer.exe, the app did NOT launch. (I'm using Windows 7 64-bit). Otherwise the installer "just worked". It asked me to remove existing GTK+ runtime - which I did - and then installed the bundled one. (More testing when I find time) -srid On Fri, Mar 12, 2010 at 11:15 PM, Onkar Shinde <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello friends, > > Yesterday I have added the functionality of embedding GTK+ runtime > installer within our own installer.
