https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50027 --- Comment #1 from Nikolay Sivov <bunglehead(a)gmail.com> --- For current Wine I think it's more like 500 MB per arch. While you could potentially reduce it by not building certain modules that are rarely used as a local exercise or some distro packaged variant, default winehq packages should remain complete. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

We can't anticipate what programs a user may need. As Nikolay said, for local cases, this could be optimized, but not universally. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50027 --- Comment #3 from Clinton H <49studebaker(a)gmail.com> --- Maybe WINE could generate a script of the required windows files for a program to function correctly. User's could submit the script to the WINE app database. Wine could create a container for that windows program and the script would tell Wine which windows files to extract from the WINE archive. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

I think PlayonLinux/PlayonMac or Lutris or Proton is something for you to use. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
