I can give you some feedback regarding this. My Ubuntu 16.04 ship by default with wine 1.6 and I tried newest Tamas GDAL builds for VS2017 and it didn't work because vcruntime140.dll that is provided in the zip requires linking against those api-ms-win-crt-*.dll that weren't included in it. I tried to install with winetricks the vs2015 redistribuable but didn't work because wine was too old, and it suggested to use Wine 2. Which I compiled from source, and then the GDAL builds worked there out of the box (no need to install the vs2015 redistribuable) since this version of Wine provides the api-ms-win-crt-*.dll (their Wine implementation, not the MS binaries themselves) I also see that OSGeo4W that now compiles GDAL & QGIS master against VS2015 has a package for the VS2015 redistribuable: http://download.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/x86_64/release/msvcrt/msvcrt2015/ So I suspect the situation is the following : * ship the api-ms-win-crt-*.dll next to your binaries and that should work everywhere * if not shippig the api-ms-win-crt-*.dll next to your binaries: - Win7: install the VS2015 redistribuable - Win8: Windows update - Win10: works out of the box Even -- Spatialys - Geospatial professional services http://www.spatialys.com
