latest dia - installation issue on windows
If you have installed the latest version of dia on windows you may not be able to launch the application properly. If you are seeing a problem it will probably be some sort of an 'entry point' error, possibly in the xmlparse.dll.
The problem occurs if you installed GTK+ and/or Dia for windows and decided to not install the translations.
To solve the 'entry point' issue (sometimes even XML_SetDocTypeDeclHandler in xmlparse.dll) you will have to uninstall Dia and GTK+ and then reinstall them - including the translations this time!
All should be well.
This works for dia-setup-0.95-1 and the necessary GTK+ installation - gtk+-2.8.18-setup-1.
