Or are the built-ins > in the global shared directory and that is local? - wine uses a global dir where it holds the builtin dlls (the global shared dir). - all native dlls are in the fake win (system) or program dir (which I assume is local in this context). maybe it helps understanding this concept if you know that you can use more than one .wine (fake win) dir. and that you also can use a specific app in your .wine dir with more than one wine version (for test purposes). the seperation of native and builtin dlls allows you to do this without copy any file into your .wine dir.
