 6pak | tbf my wrapper script was based on something from nixpkgs | 20:38:59 |
| 6pak | you've got DNSPY_HOME there | 20:39:10 |
| 6pak | and this sounds painful | 20:39:27 |

| 6pak | installing net framework with wine takes forever | 20:39:47 |
 GGG | .NET Framework 4.8 goes quite fast | 20:40:35 |
| 6pak | does it not need to install all the earlier versions anymore? | 20:40:54 |
| GGG | The .NET Framework 4.7.2 one is really slow because it installs 4.6, 4.6.1, 4.6.2, 4.7, 4.7.1 and 4.7.2 | 20:41:07 |
| GGG | But .NET Framework 4.8 seems to only install itself | 20:41:27 |
| GGG | In reply to @6pak:matrix.org
you've got DNSPY_HOME there Yeah, forgot to change that one | 20:41:40 |
| GGG | But I don't have any choice really, it needs all of that (I think, got tired of waiting for setup to see if it works without component A, B or C) | 20:42:22 |
| 6pak | would be nice to replace winetricks with nix | 20:44:34 |
| GGG | Don't think it's possible really | 20:46:46 |
| GGG | The installers need to actually run | 20:46:59 |
| GGG | And registry keys and wine parameters need to be set | 20:47:16 |
| GGG | Might be possible by messing with wine internals but I honestly cannot be bothered | 20:47:38 |
| 6pak | it's only files and registry changes | 20:47:40 |
| GGG | * Might be possible by messing with wine commands but I honestly cannot be bothered | 20:47:49 |
| 6pak | so you can just save those in a nix package | 20:48:26 |
| 6pak | and then combine those as a nix wine prefix ala nixos system path | 20:48:43 |
| GGG | I don't think I will, sounds like too much work to just avoid a one time setup | 20:49:10 |
| 6pak | but you would need to mess around with some kind of system for overlaying files and registry, sure | 20:49:22 |
| GGG | And I don't plan to upstream this to nixpkgs anyways, so I'll just pick the lazy route | 20:49:47 |
| 6pak | yeah but winetricks is so slow | 20:50:36 |
| 6pak | and the stuff it copies to the prefix takes so much space | 20:50:46 |
| GGG | It's only as slow as the installers themselves imo | 20:51:22 |
| GGG | Most of the time was spent on them in this case | 20:51:38 |
| 6pak | have you ever ran winetricks corefonts | 20:53:33 |
| 6pak | or read winetricks source code | 20:54:01 |
| GGG | Nope | 20:54:20 |
