Avoid symlinks for folders under `/wineprefix/user/$username` #30

Closed katakombi closed 5 years ago

This leads to bad symlinks e.g. "My Documents" -> '/'

katakombi commented 6 years ago

Cannot be avoided! Instead:

execute wineboot
remove symlinks
create directories instead
move user-home-dir to root
create symlink user-home-dir -> root

Postponing this to the next release. It needs many things to be refactored. For now add a note in the docs that it is necessary to use the same user name when importing/exporting or to manually fix it!

seems like unsetting HOME leads to creation of folders which is what we want! implementing this...
