Summary: DirectX installer very slow on wine Product: Wine Version: 1.1.44 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Keywords: download, Installer Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: dank@kegel.com
It takes quite a few minutes for the DirectX installer to run. This matters because it's invoked by many game installers, and before first run of some games (e.g. CODMW2) on Steam. The load average while it's running is close to zero.
One thread in it seems to be doing a Sleep(5000) frequently, after which another thread does some message pumping for a second or so. windows/logs/DirectX.log is slowly outputting a series of lines like

Can we trick the installer into not installing anything, and thereby completing quickly, by setting some registry values?

dxsetup /silent takes 32 seconds on Windows 7, and 7m36s on Wine.

It looks like it's sleeping 5 seconds between checking the GAC to see if something has shown up there yet. Are we updating that at all?

IMHO, adding five minutes to just about every game installer is more than minor, since it slows down development in general.
