This is what phasefx did for 2.0 alpha1.
Same steps as 1.6. Using Inno Setup 5.3.10-unicode and xulrunner 1.9.2.8. I also tweaked the UUID and default app directory. Trying to install over top of an existing EG1.6 installation will break things, I spent too much time trying to figure out how to clean things up correctly during install, so ended up punting.

This is what phasefx did for 1.6.0.1.
This time I took the staff_client/build/ directory from Dan's virtual image build, and deleted the /server/ sub-directory.
I grabbed the 1.9.0.17 version of xulrunner.
I upgraded InnoSetup to version 5.3.7(a), the non-Unicode build. I used the same Evergreen2.ico file.
And I used this version of the installer script:

This is what phasefx did for 1.6.0.0.
First, I used a Linux machine with all the prerequisites for Evergreen already installed.
mkdir eg_releases cd eg_releases wget http://open-ils.org/downloads/Evergreen-ILS-1.6.0.0.tar.gz tar xfz Evergreen-ILS-1.6.0.0.tar.gz cd Evergreen-ILS-1.6.0.0 ./configure --disable-core --disable-web --disable-reporter cd Open-ILS/xul/staff_client/ make STAFF_CLIENT_BUILD_ID=rel_1_6_0_0 install rm -rf build/server/
The build/ directory now contains the local code for the staff client, and if you were to point xulrunner to build/application.ini the client would start. Our goal however is create a Windows version of the staff client where a suitable version of xulrunner is bundled with that build/ directory together with an installation program. For this, I've been using Inno Setup on a Windows machine, though I've also used Inno Setup successfully with WINE on Linux.
So I copied build/ to a Windows machine and with Inno Setup installed (specifically, Inno Setup 5.3.4 with Unicode support).
I downloaded the latest 1.9 release of xulrunner for Windows. I also downloaded the Evergreen2.ico file.
Then I fed Inno Setup a script similar to this one and renamed the evergreen-setup.exe file it produced:

First, I used a Linux machine with all the prerequisites for Evergreen already installed.
mkdir eg_releases cd eg_releases wget http://open-ils.org/downloads/Evergreen-ILS-1.4.0.6.tar.gz tar xfz Evergreen-ILS-1.4.0.6.tar.gz cd Evergreen-ILS-1.4.0.6 ./configure --disable-core --disable-web --disable-reporter cd Open-ILS/xul/staff_client/ make STAFF_CLIENT_BUILD_ID=rel_1_4_0_6 install rm -rf build/server/
The build/ directory now contains the local code for the staff client, and if you were to point xulrunner to build/application.ini the client would start. Our goal however is create a Windows version of the staff client where a suitable version of xulrunner is bundled with that build/ directory together with an installation program. For this, I've been using Inno Setup on a Windows machine, though I've also used Inno Setup successfully with WINE on Linux.
So I copied build/ to a Windows machine and with Inno Setup installed (specifically, Inno Setup 5.3.4 with Unicode support).
I downloaded the latest 1.8 contrib release of xulrunner for Windows. The 1.6 and trunk versions of Evergreen use the 1.9 series of xulrunner, but for 1.4.0.6 we're sticking with 1.8.1.3. I also downloaded the Evergreen2.ico file.
Then I fed Inno Setup a script similar to this one and renamed the evergreen-setup.exe file it produced:
; Script generated by the Inno Setup Script Wizard.

Evergreen 1.2
This is what phasefx did for the tags/rel_1_2_1_1 release:
svn co svn://svn.open-ils.org/ILS/tags/rel_1_2_1_1 cd rel_1_2_1_1/Open-ILS/xul/staff_client/ make STAFF_CLIENT_BUILD_ID=rel_1_2_1_1
Then elsewhere, I made sure I had pristine copy of xulrunner:
unzip xulrunner-1.8.1.3.en-US.win32.zip
Then I used the Inno Setup Compiler version 5.1.14 with a script resembling this (I'm just changing it slightly):

The paths to xulrunner and the staff client build/ directory are the most important things to change.
When you compile the package, it creates an evergreen-setup.exe file. In this case, I renamed it to evergreen-setup-rel_1_2_1_1.exe
Here is the Evergreen2.ico file
