           Summary: 0.9.14 (Ubuntu) Add option --confdir to use alternate
                    ~/.wine directory
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-binary
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: jari.aalto at cante.net


PROBLEM

In NFS mounted systems each user shares the common directory.
The problem is that changing host, means that the ~/.wine created in another
host cannot be used.

  host A  -+ 
           +------ NFS host sharing /home/foo
  host B  -+

SUGGESTION

Provide --confdir argument which would set the correct configuration directory.
This way it would be possible to run:

  wine --confdir ~/.wine.hostA
  wine --confdir ~/.wine.hostB
