Hmm... What installer engine is used? Did you think of using some kind of
crossplatform installer like InstallJammer? (I know there are packages for
Linux
distributions, but you can never have them all, and an installer would help
some
ppl).
Anyway... how can I help on translating the installer?

Do you have any experience with translated NSI files (the installation system
we are
talking about is NSIS)

I have the NSIS installer kind of working so I am not starting again with
installjammer,
although anyone is free to try :-)

@2 nope, but I figure all is needed here is a text editor to translate some
strings.
Or am I wrong?

open the nsi file and see for yourself, there are no string!

I am giving up on the windows installer, because I can't make it work on all
machines (the
damned vc_redist problem).
So, I'm disowning this issue, and hoping someone that knows about windows
pakaging can
help.

Can someone else please check it?
I can't install NSIS at all... (unless there is a version that works on Ubuntu)

Please check out the following example of adding multiple languages to NSIS:

Thanks for the link. I may spend some time on this tomorrow, but... there is a
more
pressing problem with the windows installer, in that it ony works for like 50%
of the users
because of problems with the visual studio runtime.

Are you compiling it using Visual Studio or mingw?
If you'll switch to mingw I don't think you'll have this problem

I am using the official binaries that are made using Visual Studio.
I don't have the resources to rebuild everything with mingw (I have just a
small windows
VM)

The best IDEs for gcc compiling (to my opinion) are:
NetBeans, Eclipse, Code:Blocks, and Dev-C++/wxDev-C++ (wx is quite buggy, the
other
one lacks many features in order to be a good IDE, Code:Blocks is much better,
NetBeans is one of the most professional IDEs i've ever seen, and Eclipse is
very
heavy but relatively intuitive)

@6 why not just use a different installer? Try maybe installjammer.com - this
shouldn't require visual studio libs (though it had some problems with non
latin
characters rendering a few versions back, I don't know if they fixed it yet).

The visual studio libs are reuired because the official python and pyqt
binaries are built
using Visual Studio.

If I was on your place I wouldn't ship python along with Marave, but leave it
to the
user to install all the dependencies.

@15, well, that would be just fine if I didn't want to have more than 5 Windows
users ;-)
