I havent fully tested it cuz it hasn't really affected me (its easy to work around) .. but I know sometime around.. ~1.1.26ish or so that it no longer creates the wineprefixes for me right either, unless I just leave it at the default ~/.wine ... then it works fine. I just keep a blank clean ~/.wine to make copies of it to use with whatever $WINEPREFIX environment variable setting I want.... even doing a wineboot -u doesn't seem to make everything for me. They make it such a pain to report any bugs... I've never reported any I've found. Guess they can't make it too easy to report bugs or regressions, they'd get overwhelmed.. I seem to find some almost every day :-P
