winetricks fials when trying to register fonts

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I am currently running Fedora 12. I got the winetricks script version 
20100201. I executed "sh winetricks corefonts" and received the following 
output:

$ sh winetricks corefonts
...
...
Executing early_wine regedit c:\winetrickstmp\register-font.reg
regedit: File not found "c:\winetrickstmp\register-font.reg" (2)
Note: command 'early_wine regedit c:\winetrickstmp\register-font.reg' 
returned status 1.  Aborting.
$

I fixed the problem by applying the patch listed here:
http://code.google.com/p/winezeug/issues/detail?id=96
And by changing line 659 of the script to read:
try_regedit "$WINETRICKS_TMP"\\register-font.reg
instead of: try_regedit "$WINETRICKS_TMP_WIN"\\register-font.reg

Here are the sum changes:

$ diff winetricks winetricks.new 
45c45
<     DRIVE_C="$WINEPREFIX/drive_c"

---
>     DRIVE_C="$WINEPREFIX/dosdevices/c:"
659c659
<     try_regedit "$WINETRICKS_TMP_WIN"\\register-font.reg

---
>     try_regedit "$WINETRICKS_TMP"\\register-font.reg

After these changes, the script installed corefonts as expected. I do not 
know which change fixed the problem, only that with both, the problem was 
resolved for me, but not with just the previously reported patch.

Let me know if you need more debugging information, and if there is 
anything more I can do to help.

I am also having this problem with installing dotnet20. 
$sh winetricks dotnet20
Instaling .net 2.0 runtime.  Can take several minutes.  See 
http://wiki.winehq.org/MicrosoftDotNet for tips.
Setting Windows version to win2k
Executing early_wine regedit c:\winetrickstmp\set-winver.reg
regedit: File not found "c:\winetrickstmp\set-winver.reg" (2)
Note: command 'early_wine regedit c:\winetrickstmp\set-winver.reg' returned 
status 1.  
Aborting.

Making a similar change as in the original post to line 480.

This may be a duplicate of bug 80. I have not had time to confirm, and i saw 
bug 80 
about 20 seconds after I finished typing this...

I have deleted all but drive_c in my .wine folder

You can avoid this problem by creating a symlink to wine32:

mv /usr/bin/wine /usr/bin/wine_old
ln -s /usr/bin/wine32 /usr/bin/wine

Works on Fedora 12 (kernel 2.6.32.11-99.fc12.x86_64) with Wine-1.1.38.

Was this really caused by running a 64 bit wine?  If so, current winetricks 
should provide more guidance to users.

(I mean, it's already better at aborting if you're doing something wrong with 
64 bit wine.) 
Please try it again with current wine and winetricks.
