The first problem is that the location of runtime DLLs varies wildly between
distributions, and there's no common independent way to detect it. We could
potentially hardcode a few "guesses" at the runtime path into Wine's configure
script, but that brings us to the second problem: there's no way to verify the
presence of runtime DLLs. We *are* the loader and lower-level APIs and would have
to bootstrap ourselves first, and this is pretty much infeasible.
What does that variance between distros look like?
Why can't we (or others) standardize a location? Fedora/RHEL and Debian/Ubuntu are
upstreams for a majority of distributions. If we create a standard they'll fall in line.
