preventing prompts and installing mono is NOT the same thing.
I mean really.. wasting hundreds of mb of space in a wineprefix that you may not even need mono in? YOu end up having like 10 wineprefixes and say 1 uses mono, but you want to waste a GB or more of space?
It would be nice, though, if there was a better way. If Wine supported an
alternate install mechanism that allowed symlinking to pre-unpacked
packages, that would be a total win. Feel free to submit a patch implementing this method.
Probably my request was unclear.
Is there a way to disable the installing Mono prompt in the sense that wineprefix is generated WITHOUT mono, just like when you click the ``cancel'' button.

resulting wineprefix could not later re-enable gecko.
really? I create them with things disable like that, but If I run a normal wineboot on the same prefix again with them enabled, it prompts again, or installs them if I have the files in the right place, and runs fine. I'm not sure why it would disable gecko permanently, unless it was adding that setting in the registry.
