Description Jim Peterson 2002-04-17 19:26:02 UTC 
When I try to run dia-0.89pre1-setup.exe, it complains with a dialog box
that says "dia is already installed.  Please uninstall it first."  At this
point my only option is to hit "ok".  This seems like a bad thing for a
program to do.  It should at least tell me why it *thinks* it's already
installed (it doesn't appear in Add/Remove Programs or my Start menu).  A
better alternative would be to ask me if I want to install over a previous
version.  I'm currently stuck, unable to even install the program, unless
I hack through the code, figure out why it thinks it's already installed,
and change it.
