As you probably have noticed, downloading Gecko on first use confuses users. Now, with last week patches, there is an other way to do it, transparent for users. MSHTML code looks for cab file in $data_dir/gecko (that is usually /usr/share/wine/gecko). Alternatively, if you run Wine from build dir, it looks for $build_dir/../gecko. Wine checks it both in wineprefixcreate and, if Gecko is not installed, on first usage. It means that if you download wine_gecko-0.1.0.cab from SourceForge and put it in the right place, you will no longer have to care about installing Gecko.
http://source.winehq.org/winegecko.php still points to an old Gecko package (0.0.1). Please update it.
