The msvcr80 and the msvcp80 libraries are installed into the OpenOffice.org
installation into the Brand layer. In the past we always preferred using the
local OOo directories instead of using the system directories. If it is
necessary we can also add further copies of these files into the other
OOo-directories.
Concerning the MergeModule I have to say, that we are planning to remove the
usage of MergeModules completely, because they are no longer fully supported by
MS. It is difficult to get updates. MS has problems with patches, if other
programs includes their MergeModules but do not take care of required patches.
Therefore I want to remove the integration of the "Microsoft_VC90.msm" files and
replace them by redistributables (exe files) that are installed with
CustomActions. This is planned for OOo 3.3.
So if there is a redistributable containing the msvc80 libraries and if it is
required to install these files into the system directories, we can easily add
this to the installation set.
