We don't want to create an empty wine directory for no reason just to make it browseable. There are legitimate use cases for having Wine installed but not having ~/.wine (eg, you only use it to run an App depending on Wine that uses its own prefix)
Regardless putting that sort of logic in the maintainer script is forbidden, since it would mess with a user folder (and only one user too). IMO what's needed here is for the desktop OS to be able to hide the browse C drive launcher if it doesn't actually point to anything. In the past I've advocated Gnome for instance use a bookmark to ~/.wine/drive_c/, which would in turn autohide, but upstream didn't want to do it. It might be an option for us though. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/875943 Title: Clicking on "Browse C: Drive" in Dash does not bring wine c: drive if wine has not run a program yet.
