wine users - Sep 2011 - Pre-downloaded Wine Gecko Installer?

Hi,

I've been doing a lot of testing in isolated WINEPREFIX environments.  So,
I'm constantly creating new .wine folders and having to run winecfg to set
them up.  Well, each time I do this, I have to watch the Wine Gecko Installer
progress bar, and sometimes it can be slow (like if my internet connection is
bogged up).

I wish I could keep a local copy that WINE would pull instead of downloading it
every time.  I've seen someone in this forum post a few commands to use to
install Gecko (basically a copy of the installed components, along with a
registry key to import), but (A) importing the registry keys didnt work for me
and (B) I need a way to do this in a single script without requiring human
interaction.

Anyone have any ideas here? Basically, I want to end up with a script
"InstallGecko.sh", that installs it to my WINEPREFIX directory, with
no popups, no questions asked.

I agree. I've actually been contemplating starting a thread about too many
Geckos myself, but never got around to it.

I would love to know how to only have to download Gecko once as well, and how to
occasionally update it.  :D

Cheers,

I remember trying that and it still downloading for each new prefix. I'll
have to try it again.
Thank you,
