Hi,
I'm having a problem using winetricks... I've made a clean install of
Daryna KDE (ubuntu gutsy based) and have the latest wine installed from the
winehq repos...
I have winetricks installed and can start it, but when I try to install anything
I get the following:
Code:
niksavel at darth:~$ ./winetricks
Executing wget -nd -c --read-timeout=300 --retry-connrefused --header
Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate
http://internap.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/corefonts/arial32.exe

=> `arial32.exe'

If I try to run
Code:
wget -nd -c --read-timeout=300 --retry-connrefused --header Accept-Encoding:
gzip,deflate
http://internap.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/corefonts/arial32.exe
manually than it works normally... it's some kind of a permissions issue.
I was under the impression that I was supposed to run winetricks as a user, not
with sudo... in fact if I try to run it with sudo than the download works but
it fails at install saying that I'm not the owner of the directory... the
owner is me (niksavel) and not root... so I should have permissions...
I've tried deleting the entire .wine and reinstalling everything to make
sure I didn't mess up any directories but it's always the same... for
some reason I couldn't find anyone else having this issue....
help pls...
