http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8033 --- Comment #59 from Kai Blin <blin(a)gmx.net> 2007-10-08 14:23:19 --- As this bug keeps turning up in the bugzilla mails, I could not help to notice. rankincj(a)yahoo.com, this procedure of moving away the .wine directory and creating a new one with only the application in question installed is a debugging technique. It is not out goal to force users to recreate their .wine directory on every update. However, to make debugging problems feasible, we ask people to check with a fresh .wine directory. As a developer, I frequently run tests on a freshly installed windows machine so I can be certain I'm not seeing any artifacts created by installing other things. Your previous posts indicate that you are going to argue that you are a user, not a developer. In this case, I can only say that this is the Wine equivalent to the advice you hear from Windows-based tech support people over and over again if you call in with problems. "Just get a clean .wine" is the same as "Please reinstall Windows". In Windows, you will not be required to do it that often anymore, but that is because Windows changes less frequently. Now, as this is turning into some sort of a wine user experience discussion, how about we take this to some other forum more suited for a discussion like this? That will allow developers who read the bugzilla mails to focus on development, and not on people like me, who misuse the bug comments for non-bug-related posts. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8033 --- Comment #58 from rankincj(a)yahoo.com 2007-10-08 13:48:28 --- (In reply to comment #57) > Have you ever taken a registry from another version of windows and glued it > into a different version? It won't work! That's essentially what you're doing! Eh? What is that you essentially think that I am doing??? All I have done at the moment is upgrade binary Wine RPMs and report that Wine core-dumps! ("Core dump BAD"). The only other registry tweaking that I have done was needed to persuade the app to run with a clean wineprefix directory, at your behest. > We know that the registry is a prone point of failure and that is why we ask you > to do this. Please remember to tell Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu and all the other distros. By the sound of it, *none* of your users are doing this. > If you want to figure out how to reinstall wine without going through all the > patches for WoW (which is entirely possible)... WoW is simply an example of a popular Windows application with an extremely non-trivial installation procedure; something that no-one in their right mind would want to repeat every time that a new version of Wine is released. I actually reported this bug about a completely different application. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

[Bug 8936] openCanvas does not start properly
by wine-bugs＠winehq.org Oct. 8, 2007

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8936 --- Comment #10 from Konstantin Svist <fry.kun(a)gmail.com> 2007-10-08 13:14:25 --- Note: openCanvas (both versions 1.x and 4.5) start up normally under Crossover Office. I suspect the problem is in the Fedora distribution. Can someone check what is messed up in Fedora so we can move the bug there? P.S. Dan, are you also using Fedora? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

[Bug 9021] unable to read characters to navigate "wine configuration" and " wine file"
by wine-bugs＠winehq.org Oct. 8, 2007

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9021 --- Comment #8 from Andreas Bierfert <andreas.bierfert(a)lowlatency.de> 2007-10-08 09:01:34 --- I have done some checking on the builds and they are fine. The problem should be fixed by making a new .wine directory (backup current ~/.wine directory, e.g. mv to ~/.wine-old and invoke wineprefixcreate or any other application running wine). I guess the bug can be closed as notabug. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8033 --- Comment #57 from Jesse Allen <the3dfxdude(a)gmail.com> 2007-10-08 08:28:39 --- Chris, Have you ever taken a registry from another version of windows and glued it into a different version? It won't work! That's essentially what you're doing! Heck it's even worse on windows since the registry is tied to the hardware you are using. At least wine has an ability to regenerate a registry on the fly where windows really does not. We know that the registry is a prone point of failure and that is why we ask you to do this. If you want to figure out how to reinstall wine without going through all the patches for WoW (which is entirely possible) then take this somewhere else. This bug is FIXED. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
