Hello there,
Doug, I believe that some (at least if, not most of) PgAdmin users are
aware of software/OS construction problems and just require stuff works.
I don't defend MS but Linux apps also require libraries in order to make
some apps work correctly, fortunatelly solved by package managers, so
this problem affects all platforms somehow.
While I think, that there is no reason to redistribute PgAdmin along
with C++ Redistributable but definitelly there exists a need and
implementation opportunity to warn or make an installer resolving a
dependency and downloading parts of required Windows components (like
ie. MS oneclick installer does).
Regards,
Piotr
