opatchinstall(3).log is showing that the error code being thrown is 0x80004005

I believe error code 0x80004005 is related to windows licensing validation somehow.

I tried Googling, but it seems to be every error under the sun :P
Anyone know anything I could try?

[Siegie (siegie)]

confirming.

It would be nice to be able to install Service Pack 2 for Microsoft Office 2007, since this adds - among other things - native support for ODF (Open Document Format), which is used by OpenOffice.org (Ubuntu's default office application).

This is a Wine bug, unrelated to Wine packaging or Ubuntu. Should it really be here? Isn't it invalid?

Thank you for reporting this bug.

Does this occur in most recent WINE?

[Jack Leigh (leighman)]

Confirmed upstream bug
