Actually, if you review the last step, the "sudo cp -r ..." step, doing that copies the 3.6 files into the subdirectory where the 3.0 files are [installed to], so the "internal wine binaries" (as you're referring to) are replaced by the 3.6 files. One significant difference between a "Google-modified" Picasa (3.0) and an install from a 3.6 Windows install is when you execute the 3.6 install, the 3.6 Picasa Windows binary is run directly, but with the Google-modified Picasa, the Windows binary is launched by a script found down in the "/opt/google/picasa/3.0/wine..." subdirectory tree. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google-Labs-Picasa-for-Linux" group.
