--- Comment #141 from Aric Stewart aric@codeweavers.com 2012-02-06 14:48:13 CST --- Qian Hong, I am discussing with Alexandre how to better handle and generate the SystemLink setting for Wine to handle new font installs.
Right now WINE dynamically generates that fallback intelligently and with quite a bit of neat flexibility. I was advocating to remove the registry setting all together and regenerate the fallbacks every time, that would make it pick up new fonts that are installed as well as changes to font replacements quite easily.
However the question is if Chinese users are going to try to set that registry setting themselves and have it have effect? If users are going to try to set that up then we may have a problem because we will be unable to know if the setting was setup by the user or a stale dynamically generated setting from a previous run.
If you feel that most Chinese users will not be setting that registry key then i am going to take steps to remove it all together and have it be something handled internally.
Will that work?
