I cannot access the login to Google (Google won't let me for some technical reason) , into http://code.google.com/p/winezeug/issues/list so I use this mail list to report 2 enhancement requests
1) Can winetricks also include a REMOVE script for each of the tricks ? It seems that a user is now advised to remove some (for the user often illogical) files in the windows directories. This is error prone, and lags the nice installation interface.
2) Can winetricks also include a status check for each of the tricks ? This could be as simple as checking if the files provided by wine have the latest wine time stamp and/or version signature. Alternately, a list of installed (by the UI selected) tricks can be provided.
Each debugging request for wine states that I should remove all winetricks. However I have no way to tell, and no way to safely remove them.
For example, my ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/sys*/* contains the files below, for which I suspect a wine trick, based on the time stamp. However, they may also be installed by some piece of windows software that I have installed. Thus, simply removing them does not make sense to me.
Could somebody file this request in the issue database for me ?
