           Summary: KDE Windows installer crashes on x64 during download
                    of package list
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: MS Windows
        OS/Version: MS Windows
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: crash
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: jm.ouwerkerk at gmail.com


Version:           unspecified (using Devel) 
OS:                MS Windows

After the installer finishes the step of downloading package lists for the
installer to work with, it crashes. This is regardless of whether or not you
have previously installed KDE, or which mirror you selected for download.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Download KDE on Windows installer,
Run as Admin,
Click through the Wizard selecting the basic options (like installation dir,
mirror)

Actual Results:  
After selecting mirror the installer will attempt to fetch package list, this
seems to complete normally (at any rate the progress bar fills nicely), but
once the progess pop up disappears Windows 7 64bit will pop up a dialog about
the Installer having encountered a problem and do you want to let Windows
search for help with this problem.

Expected Results:  
I'd expect the package selection screen to pop up instead of the installer to
crash.

Windows 7, 64bit, updated except for installing SP1
