Does anyone have Excel 2003 working under Wine in F8? I installed Office 2003 Pro after installing wine in F8, then running winecfg to make an initial setup, and using winetricks to install corefonts. I had to "yum install cabextract" before the winetricks script would install corefonts. I have tried various different additional things (rm -fr ~/.wine in between each attempt) but I reach the same problem every time. I have tried installing dcom98, riched20 etc etc but it does not make it work. Also I have the same symptoms on two different machines, bit running KDE 3/5 in F8 and fully up to date. The problem arises after the first time I run Excel (in KDE 3.5 using the K menu to navigate to Excel via the wine submenu). The first time after installing Office 2003 it works (apparently) fine. But every time I run Excel after that it crashes and says it needs to shut down - but does not and goes through a never-ending loop of popping up this box on the screen. Killing all wine processes still leaves cruft on the screen and I have to close the login session and log back in to clear the cruft. However Excel 2003 won't run apart from the first time after install. Does anyone have a workaround for this? I have looked at the winehq site, and also googled for an answer but I cannot find anything available specific to F8 with an up-to-date wine package (there is some blog stuff for the release candidates for wine 1.0 but nothing using current versions.
