Bug Description

I've downloaded this:
http://launchpadlibrarian.net/76564363/bzr-explorer-setup-1.2.1.exe

Installed, selected both "create desktop icon" and "create quick launch icon". Neither has been created. I've installed several times and the setup never installs any icons.

I'm running XP SP3. I don't know what kind of additional info you need, let me know what to provide.

I wonder if bzr-explorer should perhaps just be included in the standard windows installer?

Also for some reason the `Download it now` button on this page: http://doc.bazaar.canonical.com/explorer/en/ links to the v1.1.1 series.

As I know we don't create links anymore because they're conflicts with the links created by standalone installation. So this is correct behavior. So we shouldn't show those checkboxes at all.

You're right about the default install having that option. It seems I've installed bazaar, but left out the bzr explorer and went on to download it separately. The default install creates icons.

Thanks for the super-fast response, guys!
