------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Oct 19 06:16:05 -0700 2006 ------- Greg, please do not mix up the installation mechanism with the problem of the download installation sets for OOo. OOo installation sets on CD do not have this problem. We use nsis only, because we want to minimize the download size and simplify the unpack mechanism. Therefore the installation set is wrapped into the nsis installer. On Unix platforms we simply create tar.gz files. The user has to know, how to unpack a tar.gz file. Therefore it would be comparable to use zip or selfextracting exe-files on Windows, too. Then the user could unpack this files and would be responsible for the unpacked installation set. That is, what I proposed to do. I think it is not a good idea, to put the directory selection dialog into the nsis part of the installer. Then you would see it twice, because we do not want to make a silent installation with the Windows installer. Additionally nsis would not only be a wrapper. I want to avoid, to add further functionality into the nsis installer. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
