If I find this to be true on my system, then we have an issue to bring to the Wine folks. I'll try using Gnome, if you don't mind. > if I delete the .wine directory AFTER the installation of > 1.2.0-0.6.rc6 then the error occurs again and I have to go back to the > rc6 in order to enumerate the fonts. > > This makes me believe that this font-enumeration writes something to > the .wine directory that's being used by the later versions. after > installing and starting the rc6 all other versions work fine, until I > delete the wine directory. > > It does. Fonts are written to the .wine/drive_c/windows/fonts directory (or they should be). That may be what is happening when you first run Wine after creating a new directory. I'll also give this a go on my Mac (since this looks like a possible Wine bug), but again this will have to wait until tomorrow. Thank you for the details on what you did to get this to work. This helps.
