winetricks mfc42 doesn't work

[MoonKid]

Installing the mfc42.dll doesn't work currently because winetricks is not able to download it. What is this all about. Is there another source for it and how can I install it? I need my IrfanView running.

Make sure you have the latest winetricks, and if the problem persists, report it to http://winetricks.org.

How do I know what the current winetricks is and where can I get it? Following your link doesn't help. There is no information about the current version and no Download-Sections for debs or something like that. And "no" I won't build it from source just to make IrfanView running.

My winetricks version is "20120308". Looks quite old (bodhi-linux rep). Damn. I think this is the problem.

Use this command to download it:

Code: Select all

wget http://winetricks.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/src/winetricks

That should save it in your home directory as winetricks. Run it with

Code: Select all

sh winetricks

There is nothing to build; winetricks is just a script.

With the current Ubuntu-Version of winetricks it worked fine. It just depends on the old/LTS Bodhi-Linux repositories.
