Hi,
I've recently started playing with wpkg and i've been testing packages
deploy properly to a test machine. So far i've had a number of them
install fine basing the entries in package.xml on what's available in
the silent installers section of the wpkg wiki, however, i've just tried
7-Zip and although it's seems to have silently installed fine, by
default none of the expected file associations were setup. Is this
normal behaviour for this package? If so does anyone have a simple way
to setup the required associations?
I do have a list of the registry entries added by the program when i've
executed 7-Zip and selected the files that I want 7-Zip to associate
with. So I guess I could simply merge a registry file after the install
or something. I just wondered if anyone had any ideas on doing this an
easier way before I start creating registry files and such.
On another note, after creating the file associations, the icons for the
files don't change from the 'unknown file' icon. Is this normal
behaviour too? I've not yet installed 7-Zip manually from the original
executable, so i'm not sure what the installer in manual mode is capable
of.
well, if I were you, I'd try to install "the normal way" and see if
there are file associations.
and if there is a problem with associations when 7-zip is installed
silently, I'd report the problem on some 7-zip mailing list?
