[pygtk] pygtk Digest, Vol 99, Issue 21

[Shrihari Sankaran]

An update here. After getting the WinXP build to work on 7, I just compared
the contents of the "dist" directory of the builds generated on Win7 and
WinXP. I found that Win7 gave me a lot of extra DLLs. List below:

API-MS-Win-Core-Debug-L1-1-0.dll
API-MS-Win-Core-DelayLoad-L1-1-0.dll
API-MS-Win-Core-ErrorHandling-L1-1-0.dll
API-MS-Win-Core-File-L1-1-0.dll
API-MS-Win-Core-Handle-L1-1-0.dll
API-MS-Win-Core-Heap-L1-1-0.dll
API-MS-Win-Core-Interlocked-L1-1-0.dll
API-MS-Win-Core-IO-L1-1-0.dll
API-MS-Win-Core-LibraryLoader-L1-1-0.dll
API-MS-Win-Core-Localization-L1-1-0.dll
API-MS-Win-Core-LocalRegistry-L1-1-0.dll
API-MS-Win-Core-Misc-L1-1-0.dll
API-MS-Win-Core-ProcessEnvironment-L1-1-0.dll
API-MS-Win-Core-ProcessThreads-L1-1-0.dll
API-MS-Win-Core-Profile-L1-1-0.dll
API-MS-Win-Core-String-L1-1-0.dll
API-MS-Win-Core-Synch-L1-1-0.dll
API-MS-Win-Core-SysInfo-L1-1-0.dll
DNSAPI.DLL
KERNELBASE.dll
MSIMG32.DLL
NSI.dll
USP10.DLL

So, I went ahead and deleted these files. Now, the app worked fine both on
XP and 7. But, what are these files and why are they being included on 7? Is
there any way to avoid this.

Thanks,
Shrihari
