--- Comment #5 from Jörg Höhle hoehle@users.sourceforge.net 2009-05-22 04:30:26 --- So it's been reject, yet I've been annoyed several times that AppDB does not accept the combination installs: no runs: yes
I met three cases:
a) Installer fails, but one can just copy all files from CD to HD e.g. Pumuckl Klabauterjagd http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=16122 (did not yet file bug report for the installer) This case does not deserve garbage rating.
b) Installer fails with wine on MacOS, but copying the game directory and registry entries from a Linux wine install works. e.g. Pharaoh
c) People in AppDB report that copying a MS-Windows install directory to wine works.
Case c) is very annoying, as it means that probably many people like me cannot use the game, lacking a MS-Windows system.
Yet there's value in knowing about that in AppDB, esp. a) and b), instead of silencing it by submitting false data. For Pumuckl, I lied and said: installs: N/A. This is not acceptable.
