Summary:                    GTK installer default settings do not work with
Windows Vista Home Premium
Description: 
This concerns the installer:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/grisbi/files/grisbi%200.6.0/beta3/Grisbi_0.6.0_b3.exe/download

0.5.9 was installed prior to this installation and it was not
uninstalled.

When using GTK installer one needs to change the settings in 'Install DLL
files to' and use <instdir>\lib - otherwise the program does not start.

All the tests  I have done before have showed no such problem.
Might be a problem with the PATH variable.

However it seems very strange...

Could you confirm that the problem is the same with the RC1 installer?

Thank you

(This concerns Vista Home Premium only.)
RC1 had the same problem - but now I must say that I am not sure whether
this is a some sort of compatibility problem or what:
I uninstalled all previous Grisbi versions and installed RC1 in the folder
Grisbi. Install failed until I closed all the possible processes I could
find using Process Explorer - even closed explorer.exe*. After that I was
able to install RC1 with the previously mentioned GTK-settings; all other
attempts failed.

Failure here means that when trying to start the program after
installation, one gets prompt saying "The procedure entry point
png_set_expand_gray_1_2_4_to_8 could not be located in the dynamic link
library libpng12-0.dll."

*I have software called True Launch Bar ( http://www.truelaunchbar.com/
)that is some way integrated into the explorer.exe and thought it might
have something to do with the issue.
