It got worse after 'sh winetricks dcom98' with the Wine install not entering the VC6 install wizard (with the 'Next' button) any more. Here is an abbreviated console log: ken@ken-desktop:~/Desktop/VC6$ wine setup.exe err:module:DelayLoadFailureHook failed to delay load rpcrt4.dll.NdrClientInitializeNew wine: Call from 0x7b845720 to unimplemented function rpcrt4.dll.NdrClientInitializeNew, aborting err:module:DelayLoadFailureHook failed to delay load rpcrt4.dll.I_RpcExceptionFilter wine: Call from 0x7b845720 to unimplemented function rpcrt4.dll.I_RpcExceptionFilter, aborting wine: Unimplemented function rpcrt4.dll.I_RpcExceptionFilter called at address 0x7b845720 (thread 0009), starting debugger...

I checked the system32 directory. Most dlls reported as being extracted by sh winetricks vcrun6 are there, except atla.dll, atlu.dll, ADVPACK.DLL, W95INF32.DLL, W95INF16.DLL. atla.dll and atlu.dll are probably 'ascii' and and unicode versions. An atl.dll is present that may contain these functions. The following are not present in system32: VCRedist.inf, PreSetup.exe and 50comupd.exe. Wine 1.1.5 together with winetricks has been reported to be able to install VC6. I would like to try 1.1.5, but how do I get it? Only 1.0.1 and 1.1.8 are available for download on the Wine Website as far I can see. I would also like to go back to 1.0.1 and issue sh winetricks vcrun5 dcom98 which I did not do last time. That means I need to uninstall 1.1.8 that I am using now and I don't want to leave anything behind. How do I do that?
