[Bug 41490] New: Stop recreating/resetting symlinks on each update (eg " drive_c/users/[user]/My Documents")
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41490 Bug ID: 41490 Summary: Stop recreating/resetting symlinks on each update (eg "drive_c/users/[user]/My Documents") Product: Wine Version: 1.9.20 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: trivial Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: cey.tarik(a)gmail.com Distribution: --- Every time after updating wine through my distro's (Arch) repository, wine will "update the configurations". This also means that wine will reset the symlinks in the user's folder (drive_c/users/[username]). For example, "My Documents". I do not want wine apps to pollute my home folder (this is were "My Documents" and other symlinks usually point to). And i want all my WINEPREFIXEs to use a common "My Documents" folder, which is not ~/ . That's fine, so i just symlink "My Documents" to somewhere else. But after each update Wine deletes my symlink and creates it's own symlink to ~/ again. Why? Is that really necessary? This seems trivial to fix, so unless there is some exotic issue preventing this to be changed, i really do not understands why this has to happen every time. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
