When I used "emerge wine", wine was not correctly set up for use. The problem is that the default wine directoy with its files, '~/.wine', is not set up automatically for a user account. I have a simple 'one user' (apart from root) system, so I haven't done this for multiple user accounts. For my single user, I copied the source file for wine into my /usr/src directory, untarred it, and then from my user account I used the script from /usr/src/wine/tools called "wineinstall", which then runs through instructions to install wine for that user, asking for the root password when required. There might be an option somewhere that will set up a .wine directory for all user accounts, but I have no information about that. In most cases it won't be necessary, since wine is generally run from the host machine. Cheers- Oscar
do you have something in /etc/skel/.wine/ ? maybe like a symlink /etc/skel/.wine/config -> /etc/wine/config ?
This is in the current ebuild... dodir /etc/skel/.wine insinto /etc/wine doins ${S}/documentation/samples/config dosym /etc/wine/config /etc/skel/.wine/config The issue is that if a user is added BEFORE the installation of wine... then the files wont get copied to the users home directory. There is also this comment which displays after wine is installed... "If you are installing wine for the first time, copy /etc/wine/config (global configuration) to ~/.wine/config and edit that for per-user configuration. Otherwise, wine will not run. Also, run \"wine regapi setValue < /etc/wine/winedefault.reg\" to setup per-user registry for using wine. More info in /usr/share/doc/wine-${PV}." If you are looking for a more automatic setup of your configuration... emerge winesetuptk
