Issue 127197: Bundling msvcr100.dll is error-prone, insecure and hard to
maintain
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=127197



--- Comment #1 from Ariel Constenla-Haile <arie...@apache.org> ---
Including the Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package x86 (we don't need the 64
bit version, because AOO is a 32 bit application and so it cannot load a 64 bit
JVM) increases a little the size of the installer:

135M Apache_OpenOffice_4.1.3_Win_x86_install_en-US.exe
143M Apache_OpenOffice_4.1.4_Win_x86_install_en-US.exe

The options are:

1) bundle the updated 32 version of msvcr100.dll

2) bundle the Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package

3) do not bundle anything, and advice the users to install the Visual C++ 2010
Redistributable Package by themselves 

You can test with the installers at http://home.apache.org/~arielch/AOO414/
