I was wondering how I can easily disable the Mono prompt (without installing Mono). yes I know that its "broken" like that, its required and all that jazz, thanks...
To get past the Gecko prompt I've always done a...
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="mshtml="
I can't seem to figure out what dll override I can put in to stop the mono prompt... or if there is some other way.
Disabling Mono prompt
I used to use WINEDLLOVERRIDES="mshtml=", too, but it turned
out to generate too broken a wineprefix.
Why not preinstall both gecko and mono in the system, a la

because I'm not wasting hundreds of mb of space per wrapper for Wineskin when the single program being installed usually doesn't need either one. A few Wineskin ports and you can waste like a gigabyte of space for useless gecko and mono files. Most people good with it know what to go in and strip out once they get things working... but most hobbyists do not and space is just wasted.
The prompt is annoying in some situations, but I can live with it... people can hit cancel easy enough, but it would be nice when I do a simple "refresh" on the wineprefix that it doesn't prompt. I normally leave the prompts in there so people can easily use them to install only if they need it.

installed mono is still like 130mb... I don't want to take a 150mb wrapper (all of Wine, X11, and supporting libraries) and put another 130mb in it just for mono that will not be used in many cases. Making them as small as possible is better. I'm surprised people who run a different Wineprefix for everything are wanting to waste that much space. Right now even with normal Wine if you have 5 games set up in different prefixes all with Mono installed, your using up well over half a gigabyte of space in Mono files, hope they are being used.DanKegel wrote:Why not have Wineskin ports download them and cache them
in a shared location, so they don't need bundling?
