error when installing dotnet30

[Tomoko_A_Best]

I'm trying to install dotnet45, but I can't install the dotnet30 prerec. Any ideas? this is what I get:

------------------------------------------------------

Make sure you have the latest Wine and winetricks and a clean wineprefix.

I have the latest everything, it still doesn't work.

Bug 30845 was fixed in 1.5.8. Current winetricks in current Wine says

Code: Select all

Current wine does not have wine bug 30845, so not applying workaround

Whatever you have is not the latest.

You didn't mention trying a clean wineprefix. You will need to after upgrading; once a .NET installer has failed in a wineprefix, it is no longer clean.

I used a clean wineprefix and my winetricks version is the latest from the AUR, which matches with the version number of winetricks from the info page. Is there some other way to get winetricks?

Also make sure you have the latest development release of Wine, not the stable one.

I have the lastest winetricks as well as the devel version of wine yet it still doesn't work. Is there a way to uninstall everything wine related totally (scripts, netframework3.exe, etc) and install it again?

Delete the wineprefix. If you haven't done that already, then you haven't been using a clean one.

Delete the wineprefix. If you haven't done that already, then you haven't been using a clean one.

I have done that though, nothing you have suggested has worked for me.

Exactly which Wine version are you using?

wine-1.7.49

There was a regression that affected Office 2010 and wasn't fixed in git until after 1.7.49 came out. It's possible that also affected the .NET installers, though no one reported any problems. I'm using wine-1.7.49-41-g36a39ce, which has the fix in it. You could try building from git, or just wait for 1.7.50, to see if that's it. (If it's not, then I don't know what the problem is. .NET 3.0 installs fine on my system.)
