Another month, another Winetricks.

Dan Kegel released winetricks 20101008 today. new verbs icodecs, msnasn1, opensymbol, wmi, xmllite; removed obsolete verbs audioio, dcom98, eadm, urlmon

wsh57 now works with vb scripts, the code has undergone some spring cleaning, so watch out for regressions.  (We've fixed a few already.)  In particular, the audioio, dcom98, eadm, and urlmon verbs are gone, let me know if you really need those!

There's a new --optin commandline option that will tells winetricks to phone home after each run with info about which verbs really get used. Please consider using this, it will help future winetricks development. (You only have to give that option once, it sticks. You can turn it off with the --optout option, or by removing ~/.cache/winetricks.)

Longer Changelog:

Detlef Riekenberg:

  • wmi: new verb

Andrew Nguyen:

  • steam: install corefonts first
  • gfw: Avoid extracting the entire Win2k SP4 redist for msasn1.dll

Austin English:

  • Always use quiet and overwrite options for unzip. (issue 196)
  • Lots of win64 fixes
  • audioio: removed
  • cmake: support silent install
  • d3dx9_xx: only extract the desired dll (faster)
  • dotnet11: work around wine bug 25120
  • eadm: remove, it's useless and its sha1sum changes way too often
  • ie6: get rid of ie6 online installer, rename ie6_full to ie6 (which works around the inseng bug), support quiet installs
  • mono28: bump to mono 2.8.1
  • mono28: remove mono registry keys, they are set by default in Wine since 1.2
  • msxml3: fix install
  • opensymbol: added font
  • set_psm: should set PixelShaderMode, not RenderTargetLockMode. (Issue 197)
  • unset_winver: wine changed version setting, so make this a synonym for winver xp
  • vcrun2003: use the correct programfiles directory. Fixes win64 install.
  • w_call: if the subshell fails, exit immediately, otherwise w_die() is useless
  • winver: update how setting a windows version works.
  • w_warn: should return 0 in case of no-gui
  • xact: fix for WINEPREFIXes with spaces/special characters

Dan Kegel:

  • Many small changes to start obeying new coding convention.
  • Fix a few bugs found when running on windows
  • Fix places where paths weren't quoted (bug 179).  Thanks to Roberto Neri.
  • Add --option, --optout options to control experimental opt-in usage tracking.
  • crypt32: it was really broken, but works now.
  • dcom98: it's obsolete, and causes problems, so removed.
  • dotnet30: have to set XP mode now for install to work
  • dotnet35: improved recipe per Louis, good enough to let some apps start
  • icodecs: brought back, thanks to Alan Alberghini for the new URL.
  • msasn1: new verb.
  • urlmon: remove for now
  • wsh57: improve so wscript hello.vbs works
  • xmllite: new verb.  (Hangs at end unless you give -q)
