Lightroom 2 - Network drive issue

[scoopy]

Has anyone been able to find a workaround for the Adobe Lightroom 2 Network Drive issues? Lightroom doesn't like installing the main Catalog on the wine c:\ or anything else, for that matter.

forgive me for the dumb questions, but I'm not following these "simple instructions:" on this page http://wiki.winehq.org/Patching. I wonder whether these simply instructions could be filled out a little more for newbies like me?

Simply download the patch (likely from bugzilla, or possibly from e-mail) and copy it to your ~/wine-git folder. Then run:

where is the ~/wine-git folder? do I have to create it? or does it reside in another directory?

I guess I then run this

Code: Select all

patch -p1 < patch_name.diff

in the terminal but change patch_name.diff to lightroom2patch.txt (this is what I've called the file that i down loaded from here http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-pa ... chment.txt)

any help appreciated

The instructions assume you are building from git.

I updated it to clarify that you need the wine source code. Most
people who have the source do so through git and put it in
~/wine-git/.

I guess I then run this
Code:
patch -p1 < patch_name.diff


in the terminal but change patch_name.diff to lightroom2patch.txt (this is what I've called the file that i down loaded from here http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-pa ... chment.txt)

Yes.

The patch is a hack, so probably never.
