14800 - Version Registry: Absolute path registers into two places

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 12020

(Core Graveyard :: Installer: XPInstall Engine, defect, P3)

Description

[Jimmy Lee]

Build: 9/23/99 SeaMonkey build

1. From http://jimbob/triggers2.html, click drop-down button and select
   f_addsubcomp_regName_absolute.  Click Trigger case button to install.

err = Install.StartInstall("Functional: f_addsubcomp_regName_absolute",
                                       "f_addsubcomp_regName_absolute", vi, 0);
f = Install.GetFolder("Program", "f_addsubcomp_regName_absolute");
err = Install.AddSubcomponent("/"+regName, vi, jarSourcePath, f, jarSourcePath,
true);

RESULT:
The Version registry shows an expected node under /Version Registry.  There also
is a similar node found under Communicator similar to the following:

Subtree Dump of /Version Registry/Netscape/Communicator #19
--------------------------------
f_addsubcomp_regName_absolute
    Version (S)=1.0.1.1

EXPECTED RESULT:
Absolute path registry name installations are not registered under Communicator.

NOTE:
I cannot confirm this bug on a recent build of Linux because of a known
triggering bug.  This problem does not exist on Build 9/16/99.

[bugday] verifying as duplicate. Same registry problem. Looks like shrir had
also verified but maybe bugzilla burped it to resolved on bulk move.
