This package adds the Arial and Times New Roman fonts that are not included with Wine. Gecko installs the Mozilla HTML rendering engine (as stated). The pseudopackages do not install anything but do the following: Fakeie6 package 'fakes' the installation of Internet Explorer 6 sp1 by adding a setting to Wine's registry. The winver packages are what they are, they set the windows version to either windows98 or windowsXP. The standard windows version identification that Wine comes with is windows2000. volnum sets another registry setting that maps the ./wine/drive_c to harddiskvolume0 (which is what the C: drive looks like to WindowsNT type versions of Windows) so that several programs will install. One note: Most of the packages DO NOT require a Windows(TM) license. However the Access2000 runtime does require that you have an Office Professional or MSDN license or you are in violation of the license agreement and a license id is requested on install. If you are having problems with gdiplus, it is suggested that you use ./winetricks gdiplus. This will install a program that comes with the native gdiplus.dll file and changes the default settings to use this file. Once a package is installed, any files needed for the package install are stored in ~/winetrickscache so they do not have to be downloaded for subsequent installs. The only exception to this is the mdac2.7 and mdac2.8 packages as the downloaded file has the same name.
