[Bug 47316] New: Mono/ gecko installers should installer after a timeout period
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47316 Bug ID: 47316 Summary: Mono/gecko installers should installer after a timeout period Product: Wine Version: 4.9 Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: NEW Keywords: download, Installer, source Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: austinenglish(a)gmail.com Distribution: --- Currently, if mono/gecko aren't installed, the user gets a prompt to install them. That's great, but if it's an unattended run, it will hang indefinitely. Instead, the installer should automatically install after 1/5/10 minutes, to not break automated runs. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

R. Dierick <o.dierick(a)piezo-forte.be> --- Hello, I'd rather have the choice of the default action. I would like to get rid of the interactive prompts too, not only for unattended updates, but also when I'm manually updating tens of prefixes. I supplement this enhancement request by suggesting the use of an environment variable that specifies whether to install or not. When the variable is set the interactive prompts should be bypassed immediately. Something like this : WINE_AUTOMATIC_UPDATE=string which would be a comma separated list of installable modules names, or "none". examples: WINE_AUTOMATIC_UPDATE=mono #Install only mono. WINE_AUTOMATIC_UPDATE=gecko,mono #Install mono and gecko. WINE_AUOTMATIC_UPDATE=all #Install all modules. WINE_AUTOMATIC_UPDATE=none #Don't install any modules. WINE_AUTOMATIC_UPDATE="" #Ask user with prompts (same as unset variable). Regards. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47316 --- Comment #2 from Matteo Bruni <matteo.mystral(a)gmail.com> --- Isn't it easier to put the installation files where they are looked for instead of having to rely on the downloader? E.g. for local wine builds, put the wine-mono installers under ../mono and gecko ones under ../gecko. If you have multiple prefixes you probably even want to use the new shared install thing for mono. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

Sure; but if you want to run automated tests, things will break whenever wine-mono/wine-gecko get updated. Just because people can download/cache locally doesn't mean we shouldn't make it easier to support testing the latest and greatest wine. IMO Oliver's request belongs in a separate bug, I don't want to confuse two the two discussions. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47316 --- Comment #4 from bronek <kenorb(a)gmail.com> --- To reproduce the issue, you can run: `wineboot -i` or `wineboot -u` on the first install (otherwise remove ~/.wine to test). When you've headless installation using X virtual framebuffer, the command hangs. The only workaround is to stop Gecko/Mono from installing by WINEDLLOVERRIDES="mscoree,mshtml=" But the idea is to install it automatically.
