Adding support for VC++ Runtime 2013 (vcredist_x86.exe)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hello everyone,

I would like to request Adding support for the VC++ Runtime in version 2013. 
The German tax authorities only support the Windows operating system and for 
the current version of the tax declaration software we had to make some changes 
in winetricks to get this library up and running.

The error message was that a post install script could not be run. Please see 
the following thread for further information:

Hi, these seems to install without issue for me, when using the latest 
winetricks from:
winetricks.googlecode.com/git/src/winetricks

Here's how I tested:
wget winetricks.googlecode.com/git/src/winetricks && chmod +x ./winetricks
./winetricks -q vcrun2013

$ ./winetricks --version
20150114 - sha1sum: dad2e989bdac85d82c87f37d7db9a990209af527

Something I notice during the install is "Working around wine bug 17273 -- 
Manually extracting dlls".. So maybe the version of winetricks you're using 
doesn't have the workaround yet?

Also, is there some other way I can test it for the failure you're experiencing?

Hello Shannon,

thanks for your quick reply. I did indeed use a different version of 
winetricks. Is it in general a better idea to use the git-version? I thought 
the downloads are available at http://www.winetricks.org/winetricks

So I am assuming that the latest git-version already has the shasum-mismatch we 
were experiencing the ubuntuusers.de-Forum sorted out. For me we can close this 
issue.

Thanks again for your help,

Maik

Hi Maik, glad it helped.

The winetricks.googlecode.com/git/src/winetricks location is where any latest 
changes are merged for the project. The winetricks.org website gets updated 
manually, and not always immediately. 

Cheers!
