Thanks. I build the following little script below (If someone finds it
useful. It is meant for my ~/.wine-* type of prefixes and ignores the
Desktop and icons. It does not do the standard .wine directory,
although it should be easy to add)
If I have some time I might do a Perl script that can handle separate
prefixes. (I would probably need to look inside the .desktop files...)
This should have the advantage of not breaking edits (such as using a
patched Wine-git for Warcraft...)
#!/bin/sh
find="/usr/bin/find"
wine="wine"
rm="/bin/rm"
# Clears menus - leaves desktop and icons alone
"$rm" -f $HOME/.config/menus/applications-merged/wine*
"$rm" -rf $HOME/.local/share/applications/wine
# Rebuild Start Menu for all prefixes starting with ".wine-"
for prefix in "$HOME/".wine-*; do
WINEPREFIX="$prefix"
export WINEPREFIX
"$find" "$WINEPREFIX/drive_c/" -name '*/Start Menu/*.lnk'
-exec "$wine" winemenubuilder '{}' \; 2> /dev/null
done
