Summary: Implement Windows calculator (calc.exe) Product: Wine Version: 1.1.5 Platform: Other OS/Version: other Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: programs AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: dank@kegel.com
This was discussed recently, and both a patch that just invokes gcalc and a patch that actually implements a calc were mentioned here: http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-patches/2008-June/056311.html
This affects the app SteuerSparErklaerung; see user report at http://www.tuxlog.de/keinwindowsmehr/2008/steuererklarung-unter-gentoo-linux... Not a critical error, but it does cause an annoying dialog box to pop up when installing that app.

--- Comment #3 from Vincent Povirk madewokherd@gmail.com 2010-08-30 17:01:58 CDT --- I think it's not in Wine because no one ever sent it, not because there's necessarily a problem with it.
It seems the author asked for review long ago and got no response: http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-patches/2004-January/009481.html
Just from quickly skimming it, the code would need to be ported to Wine's build systems, and C++ comments would have to be eliminated.
The main program is nearly 4000 lines of code. It would have to be split into smaller patches and sent. It's generally more difficult for anyone but the original author to get patches accepted. Still, I think this would be reasonable if someone wants to put in the time.

--- Comment #4 from butraxz@gmail.com 2012-05-18 05:53:41 CDT --- This bug has not been updated for two years and OP by four. Is this still an issue i current (1.5.4) or newer wine ? You may also close this as abandoned if you feel that that this is issue is no longer relevant to you.

--- Comment #12 from Jonas winehq@jonass.user.lysator.liu.se --- A workaround for this is to download calc.exe and save it in ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/
Calc.exe could be found at https://archive.org/details/calc_20200918 or in ReactOS. To get the latter do something like:
curl -L https://sourceforge.net/projects/reactos/files/ReactOS/0.4.14/ReactOS-0.4.14... 7z e foo.iso reactos/system32/calc.exe cp calc.exe ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/
