[Bug 11673] New: WiX cannot validate created .msi, due to lacking MsiMergeDatabase

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11673

Summary: WiX cannot validate created .msi, due to lacking
                    MsiMergeDatabase
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
               URL: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11414#c10
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: msi
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

Finally, using latest GIT it is possible to generate .msi using WiX, however to
be able to do so one I have to pass in the -sval parameter.

See the instructions in bug 11414, comment 10 for information on how to
reproduce.

Obviously, stubbing out MsiMergeDatabase to always succeed is not enough for
the validation to work properly.

I sent a patch to wine-patches which adds the stub, Adding the stub merely
prevents wine from crashing, but the validation does not succeed.

My initial implementation of MsiDatabaseMerge is in git.  It's not complete,
but I'd like to see how well it works for this use case.

Ok, I haven't gotten a response, and the function is implemented like 95%, so
I'm marking this as fixed.  Reopen if you have a case that doesn't work in git.

I don't think it ever worked. See test cases from bug 27133 or bug 28393. Both
had to use "-sval".

Created attachment 78372
  --> http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=78372
Snippet of +trace log where the error occurrs during the Database validation
step

I also got hit by this issue (-sval works, but at the cost of disabling the
database validation).

The trace log is attached; hopefully, someone will figure this out.
