Web search finds only how to set wine prefix. I want to put wine-gecko files in appropriate place.
$ ls /usr/share/wine
ls: cannot access '/usr/share/wine': No such file or directory
According to the wine wiki page (see below) it means "you installed Wine in some $prefix rather than /usr,". I installed wine with something like apt-get install winehq-stable, how do I find out what prefix have it installed to? I've tried to use winetricks, but running winetricks settings list have not helped.
https://wiki.winehq.org/Gecko:
When your application tries to display a site, Wine loads and uses its custom implementation of Gecko. Wine tries to find Gecko installation in following order:
- If Wine Gecko is already installed in the prefix, that installation will be used.
- Wine 5.0-rc1 and newer will try to load Gecko from UNIX-style installation without installing it into the prefix. It will look for - wine-gecko-$(VERSION)-$(ARC) subdirectory of standard local lookup (see bellow).
- Wine will try to find Wine Gecko MSI installer on local machine (see bellow). If it can find it, it will install it into the prefix and use it.
- If the file can't be found on your computer, Wine will download it for you. The downloaded .msi is saved to ~/.cache/wine. If thedownload fails, you can download the appropriate version (see table below) yourself from http://dl.winehq.org/wine/wine-gecko/.
Whenever Wine tries to find local installation, it will look in following directories:
- In most cases, the file(s) should be placed in /usr/share/wine/gecko.
- If you installed Wine in some $prefix rather than /usr, $prefix/share/wine/gecko/ before /usr/share/wine/gecko. (e.g. if you installed it from source, then place the files in /usr/local/share/wine/gecko).
- If you're running Wine from build tree, Wine will try to find files in $build_dir/../gecko directory.
- Local cache, usually ~/.cache/wine.
