This is not dogfood and probably not even a beta stopper. Moving to M12.

Boy this bug is cryptic.
Asa, please cause this bug to be made useful by collecting a public spec page, 
or move it to bugscape so we can get it off the bugzilla queries. Thanks.

fwiw: Last I checked 'ini' was a microsoft thing.

sgehani, i'd appreciate an explanation of what this bug means, so that someone 
external could work on it.

sending back to gbush, looks like this is more Netscape Installer stuff. If so,
this bug should be moved to bugscape.

This affects both Netscape and Mozilla installers.  Please leave it here.  
Thanks.

Quoth Steve Dagley: "The Mac installer code was never Carbonized and there is no
intention to ever change that."
