Yes, it's arguably a bug in winetricks. Film what I gather upstream, it's
also not yet fully supported.

I would advise reverting for now. At least until upstream fully supports it.

Yes, there's a pending PR, just sorting out some final issues with
contributors before merging. If that doesn't happen by 2018/02/05, it
should this week.

Wine doesn't use or depend on libav, I'm not sure how you came to the
conclusion that this is a Wine bug.

Ubuntu isn't Debian, and reports made on ubuntu forums aren't tracked
in Debian's bug system.

Yes, I got it now. Being condescending was neither necessary nor helpful.

Guess I'll go back to contributing upsream/elsewhere instead of trying to
help Debian get a more functional Wine.

Good luck.

mingw64 is in main, what package are you referring to?

I'm asking what recommended package is the problem. It's not on
packages.d.o and not specified in the mail as far as I can tell.

Or is it that libwine-gecko-2.40 isn't in main that is the problem? I
thought the problem was a gecko recommend.

So the question is why gecko isn't in main. I suppose there's a bug, I
haven't checked (on mobile).

 Package: wine

 Dear Maintainer,

* What led up to the situation?
 Attempted to get a Windows program to work under WINE.

* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)?
 Using an existing install (from Fedora 21) I launched the program only to
 receive several errors.  It appears that the errors revolve around Wine
 Configuration not being able to connect to the mount manager leading to no
 drives being configured.  I've uninstalled and reinstalled wine and have
 removed my ~/.wine.

* What was the outcome of this action?
 Problem still exists.

 $ winecfg
 fixme:service:scmdatabase_autostart_services Auto-start service LMountMgr
 failed to start: 2
 err:winecfg:open_mountmgr failed to open mount manager err 2

* What outcome did you expect instead?
 Program would run under wine.

Downgrading Wine and maintaining the same WINEPREFIX is not supported.
You need to reinstall your application under Debian's wine instead of
transferring your WINEPREFIX from Fedora (which is probably on 1.7.4x+
