q4wine 1.0_r3-1 (x686)

A prior WINE installation lived here when q4wine was installed.

echo $WINEPREFIX
/home/Windows

Now that folder is not the same as $HOME. They are separate folders.

The q4wine setup wizard didn't read $WINEPREFIX or even $TERM (most people use urxvt, not xterm).

I couldn't find how to tell q4wine about an extant $WINEPREFIX as the "Default" one. It should have detected $WINEPREFIX and made it the Default.

It should also use proper FreeDesktop.org $XDG_... vars. I have the impression this app just uses hardwired paths in its code.

Thanks for maintaining the package. Good work.

Did you notify q4wine developer?
