[Bug 44710] New: Give users push button solution thru winetricks or via another means to sustain most common modern dependencies
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44710 Bug ID: 44710 Summary: Give users push button solution thru winetricks or via another means to sustain most common modern dependencies Product: Wine Version: unspecified Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: zakhar.nasimov(a)gmail.com Distribution: --- Most professional software such as the immensely popular photoshop and the whole adobe suite in general along with virtually EVERY OTHER professional grade software packages NEEDS at LEAST MS.NET and VISUAL C++ Im here suggesting to make the life of the users easier by providing a push button solution to install the most common dependent packages for the most popular productivity softwares. Because winetricks is horrible, it not only allows you to install outdated and obsolete packages but many of them are listed BEFORE the most RECENT and most USEFULL packages. Using winetricks is already challenging, its interface is horrible enough to revert to windows if one were to try using it to no avail. Therefore a push button solution is extremely favorable. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44710 --- Comment #1 from Nikolay Sivov <bunglehead(a)gmail.com> --- List of required application dependencies changes over time, it will get outdated pretty soon. And you shouldn’t be installing dependencies you don’t need. Winetricks command line interface is pretty straightforward, you can get full verbs list with description, and install something right after. Calling most recent versions most useful doesn’t make sense, it differs from application to application. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

Sounds like you want PlayOnLinux, but that's also a separate project. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
