Michal, this is not the main issue. let me explain this in more detail so you dont get angry about my silence. many of us want to discontinue the schizophrenia of two different windows installers and i'm trying to manage affairs so that we finish with single one. Uwe's (alt installer maintainer) decision whether he is able to continue with the current Joost code will be vital for the final result, but for this moment i would like that all development/testing energy goes into the (yet) unreleased official installer. it should already support new dictionaries, it should demand less windows privileges, the code should be simpler than both previous 1.6 installers and so on. i was accepting the last beta4 contrib binaries as a complete emergency case and want that users go with official installer for rc1 even for the price of 2 weeks delay... if you have already set up compilation environment and have some energy i would propose that you experiment with the new installer, there will be many new bugs i guess, just read the next mail in thread... pavel
