Fedora 40 - winetricks stuck on "corefonts", cannot progress #162

Closed abbasou closed 2 months ago

abbasou commented 3 months ago

On Fedora 40 KDE. I want to say that I've had issues with corefonts in other attempts at winetricks for other projects (Affinity Designer, etc, I believe). Was able to manually install and proceed past that error. With LLI, the installer gets stuck and there is no way to proceed. Is it possible to skip corefonts during installation and manually copy the fonts after (or before)?

So in peeking at config.py I noticed the SKIP_DEPENDENCIES and SKIP_FONTS flags. Went ahead and tried SKIP_DEPENDENCIES=True SKIP_FONTS=True ./LogosLinuxInstaller and lo and behold it installed without a fuss and seems to be running. I should note that I selected v29.1 since I read somewhere that v30+ had issues. Then again, maybe those were resolved with the icu*.dlls?

Logos 30+ is good to go!

You can also use flags -K and -F to skip deps and fonts respectively.

Is this issue able to be closed, or are you wanting us to investigate corefonts on Fedora more?

Update again: Logos updated itself to the latest 36, so that seems to be working as well?

Good to know! Is there any log dump or debug info I can provide that would help with the dependencies and corefonts issues? I'm not a developer and I'm not a linux poweruser, but I can mostly follow instructions and run commands if you guys want any more info.

thw26 commented 3 months ago

If you want to get us a log dump, generally you can run the program with -D for debug mode, which should enable the wine logging.

I will close this issue. If you want to help further with Fedora deps, please see #143.
