◖▮~▮◗ winetricks --version20210206-next - sha256sum: 0769bbcdbd92c407f4eacaa85acc1339f607dbeafe2febd1be0912034c7af3a1
and everything on my system is for 7.0 by now, so maybe it's out of date... but I was surprised to see that both the AUR versions and the one on the regular manjaro repos are this 20210206 version.
Winetricks is a big pain to install outside of a package manager, as it has a makefile and install untracked scripts into your system.
Any advice here? Am I just using an out of date version or am I missing something else?
I usually just "wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Winetricks/winetricks/master/src/winetricks" and "bash winetricks whatever" for the rare occasions when I use it.
Looks like the reason it wasn't working was because I didn't provide the absolute path to the `WINEPREFIX` variable (also wierd that has to be a variable and can't be an argument).
Yikes, also looks like everything that winetricks can install is just written there in line in that 20 k line bash script...
Wow, sometimes wine very much reproduces the experience of using windows :dizzy:
