[Bug 223989] Re: wine: incorrect "Browse C:\ Drive" launcher
Nautilus doesn't want to do it, and I think we'll have to live with the existing launcher for a while.

[Bug 223989] Re: wine: incorrect "Browse C:\ Drive" launcher
The real solution to this is to get rid of the Browse C:\ Drive launcher entirely and replace it with a bookmark in Gnome (if the directory doesn't exist then Gnome will hide it automatically). Can a similar thing be done in XFCE and KDE? ** Changed in: wine (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Released => Triaged -- wine: incorrect "Browse C:\ Drive" launcher https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/223989 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 223989] Re: wine: incorrect "Browse C:\ Drive" launcher
Please reopen this bug, the fix breaks Kubuntu 9.04 as reported in
Ubuntu question #70652.
The fix in comment #10
- remove $HOME in Exec=xdg-open .wine/dosdevices/c:
leads Kubuntu to fail with
The file or folder file:///home//Documents/.wine/dosdevices/c:
does not exist.
The behavior of xdg-open given a relative path is unspecified. Kubuntu
winds up opening
KUrl("file:///home//Documents/.wine/dosdevices/c:") -- note
"Documents" in the path -- and thus fails.
Reverting /usr/share/applications/wine-browsedrive.desktop to
Exec=xdg-open $HOME/.wine/dosdevices/c:
fixes Kubuntu. That feels like the right fix to me but it sounds as if it will
once again break Gnome desktops.
The Portland project XDG spec at freedesktop.org don't say what shell
expansions should work or what the final path should be for a relative
path in Exec=xdg-open; the XDG spec has to specify one or the other in
order to determine the right fix for this bug.

As I understand it, executing it from a launcher (.desktop) is not supposed to do that but it did up to 8.04. Making the command sh -c "xdg-open ~.." would. Note that, according to Wine HQ, that launcher feature is "Ubuntu's doing".

Yep, thank you. Intrepid's Wine 1.0.1 uses ~/.wine/dosdevices/c: indeed. But upgrading an existing Wine to 1.1.17 uses ~/.wine/drive_c again. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6037975#post6037975 is not about drive_c vs dosdevices/c: but about using $HOME Hence, problem is not solved. -- wine: incorrect "Browse C:\ Drive" launcher https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/223989 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I'm reopening this bug. Something changed in Intrepid (perhaps recently) that broke this again in Wine. I have a fix that I think will work though: for some reason running xdg-open .wine/dosdevices/c\: works but if you include the $HOME you get " Error showing url: Error stating file '/home/cmonopoly72/$HOME/.wine/dosdevices/c:': No such file or directory" in .xsession-errors.

The good reason is that too many users were remapping their C:\ drive to an actual Windows C:\ drive, breaking both it and Wine. -- wine: incorrect "Browse C:\ Drive" launcher https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/223989 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

> Sure. It's an easy change, although winecfg won't let you remap your > C:\ drive these days for very good reasons. > Ah. What are those good reasons? Let's speak about the reason for remapping C:\ Imagine installing Ubuntu for 10 kids, all having their profiles, and their 50 Windows programs. That's 500 installations. What I, many people, and Wine HQ themselves under 3.2.4 of http://www.winehq.org/site/docs/wineusr-guide/using-regedit#AEN361 are trying to do is saving disk space & time by minimizing installations. They want to share, and hence to relocate the C:\ drive. That's also proving that Linux is at least as good a multiuser system as Windows :-) Its a matter of structuring Wine's directories to mimic Windows'. Windows (XP/NT) directories are structured as follows (as seen by non-adm users): - WINDOWS and PROGRAM FILES are global & read-only - user space and TEMP are local and read-write I and they are surprised Wine doesn't do that. Is there really no doc about setting up multiuser Wine on WineHQ? That would spare many users much time. What I have done is globalise and change permissions of drive_c. I just realized that I'd better globalise dosdevices as well and disallow changes to it. system.reg is globalised, user.reg stays local. What is userdef.reg and what to do with it? My biggest problem is with launchers in the Applications menu. A Wine installation makes them local. How can I make them global? Things would be easier too if files attributes were inherited like in Windows. -- wine: incorrect "Browse C:\ Drive" launcher https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/223989 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
