Help: Can/t install Photoshop CS6

[abc93]

Namaste all , I am new to this forum and this is my first ever post in this forum. I am posting this question because I am stuck at Photoshop CS 6 installation. After Gooogling about this issue I found the errors were due to the following missing dependencies

atmlib gdiplus msxml3 msxml6 vcrun2005 vcrun2005sp1 vcrun2008 ie6 fontsmooth-rgb gecko

I have tried installing but the link http://download.microsoft.com/download/ ... SP4_EN.EXE were removed. so I manually installed all those dependancies but still i am unable to to install. The setup reports a file missing error.
Setup log file is in the attachment.

Please help.

Hi ya abc93,

I'd start by updating your winetricks helper script to the latest release... See WineHQ Winetricks ...

The most recent version is:

Code: Select all

winetricks --version
20170614-next - sha256sum: f9680195c03e5dd0553d3651d5e5694fa42b798fd88a80d181c48211d0b1ca28

Just update winetricks and install the specified overrides from the latest test submission (Wine 2.0) on the WineHQ AppDB: Graphics Editing / Adobe Photoshop / CS6 (13.0) page...

Photoshop CS6 should work OK then (with some performance caveats)...
Major roadblocks, like the Photoshop installation failing, were ironed out quite a few versions (of Wine) ago...

Bob, Thanks a lot for your reply. But Sorry, I can't update Winetricks even after running that script. I don't know why. My Winetricks version is still 20140302

These are the Wine packages installed in my system.
wine wine1.8 wine1.8-i386 wine-devel wine-devel-i386 wine-mono0.0.8 winetricks

Any ideas.?

I'm calling you as an Ubuntu (/Linux Mint) user... So see: WineHQ Download: Ubuntu...
Supported versions of Wine are 2.0.1 (stable) , 2.11 (Development) , 2.10 (Staging).

winetricks is just a monolithic BASH script. So you can put it anywhere - in your users PATH.
Or just plonk it in a directory and use the full path when starting it:

Download the script into your HOME directory:

Code: Select all

cd
wget -c https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Winetricks/winetricks/master/src/winetricks
chmod +x winetricks

Run the script from your HOME directory (using the full path):

Code: Select all

~/winetricks

The obsolete installed version will still be present at:

Code: Select all

/usr/bin/winetricks

So you either overwrite this - or remember to use the full path when running winetricks
