Hi Jacek, as of today, "winetricks gecko" triggers the download dialog box :-( Presumably this was caused by http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-cvs/2009-November/061489.html
Even if I rearrange the script so there are no invocations of wine before unpacking gecko, it still puts up the dialog box when I run regedit to tell wine about the gecko I unpacked!
Got any suggestions? - Dan
In fact, even the simple command wine cmd /c echo yes now downloads gecko. This doesn't seem right...

The plan is that winetricks should not be used for installing Gecko. Users really should use packagers. People compiling Wine themselves should read this: http://wiki.winehq.org/Gecko If it's not clear enough, we should fix it.
BTW, I've just noticed that we should also change the text in download dialog. Here is my proposal: "Wine could not find a Gecko package which is needed for applications embedding HTML to work correctly. Wine can automatically download and install it for you. Note: it's recommended to use distro packages instead. See http://wiki.winehq.org/Gecko for details." Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks, Jacek

Those users are already accustomed to using winetricks, so I should probably make 'winetricks gecko' implement those steps. Sadly, that means it will have to use sudo, which is kind of ugly.
I'm sad that this change happened; it makes things harder for me. I can't figure out why gecko is needed for, say, cmd.
Why did you make that change?
For now I've reverted the change locally until I implement the sudo-ized gecko verb. - Dan

Downloading Gecko on the first use is technically a pain. It can't work correctly unless we'd freeze the whole app. We constantly have bugs from users complaining about it they are resolved as invalid. I've even considered removing the whole downloader, but after a talk with Alexandre we decided to try with the current solution. It wasn't meant against winetricks.
The question is why people are using winetricks for installing Gecko. Users should not notice this change if both wine and gecko are packaged correctly. I also believe that downloading manually Gecko once per a few months is not too much pain for developers. And if you have it correctly installed in Linux, you don't have to care about it every time you create a new wineprefix.
BTW, users use it with no understanding. I've seen things like 'winetricks gecko ie6' which obviously doesn't make sense. I wouldn't be surprised if most of these users already had gecko installed.
Thanks, Jacek

That kind of makes sense. As long as you don't break the ability to run commandline apps without X, I'm ok. (I just checked, it's still fine.)

Do we have a scorecard showing which distros package Wine properly? - Dan

Whoops, I checked on a system with your change reverted. I'll check again on a current system when I get a chance (this system's in the middle of a chromium valgrind test run).

I've just checked and it works fine for me.

AFAIK we don't. I've just created a list on: http://wiki.winehq.org/Gecko I know that Gentoo is not the only distribution that packages it, but I don't want to add info about distributions that I've never seen working myself.
Thanks, Jacek

I argue that forcing all of Wine to *depend* on wine-gecko is more of a pain ...
We constantly have bugs from users complaining about it they are resolved as invalid.
... however I do understand this.

Any chance of including gecko in the git repository?

If you mean including the cab file in Wine git, that doesn't look right.

So you intentionally broke it?
The Gecko install in 1.1.32 is a total *POS* as it stands, everytime it tries to install it crashes, at least I can install it with winetricks.. Well at least we could in the past!

No, I was actually fixing the bug that caused the downloader to crash as you described. The downloader was *accidentally* broken some time ago and then I've decided that we need a better solution. That's why it was broken for a while. I didn't want to fix something that is broken by design.

Hi again,
I think I should make it cleaner:
*The change wasn't meant against winetricks. I didn't even think of it when I was writing the patch, but I don't think it's a reason to revert my patch.*
Thanks, Jacek

Perhaps the downloader/installer could be automated? E.g., currently, doing: $ rm -rf ~/.wine ; wineboot brings up the installer, where the user only clicks install, nothing else. Could an automated option be added, say: $ wine iexplore.exe -install_gecko that way winetricks can still install it for users quickly and painlessly, without having to mess with sudo/etc.?

When you run iexplore, wineprefix has to be created first, so it won't work unless we'd add some sort of environment variable, but I don't see the point. How would it be better than current solution?

Simple - it could be automated on distros/environments without installed gecko package.

Hi Dan,
I've got an idea for you to workaround the problem. Something like:
$ WINEDLLOVERRIDES=mshtml= wine cmd /C echo test $ wine regsvr32 mshtml
will do the trick. Note that we prevent registration of the whole mshtml in the first command, so we have to make sure it's registered later.
I still think that the proper way is to use packages and I strongly recommend it.

Thanks, I'll give that a shot. - Dan
