I looked into it. And there are some options. I can make a separate package of gecko that I can make it a dependencie of wine. Problem is people have to know where to find it or the get stuck. I can also make the package and make it not a dependencie on wine but the the people don't know it exist. And I can just put it in the wine package. I think this is the best option in this case. Its the easiest option because people only have to download en install one package. marco
