           Summary: UNIX path names are not translated correctly and cause
                    some applications to fail
           Product: Wine
           Version: 20050419
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: FreeBSD
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-binary
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: tlp at liquidx.org


WINE 20050419 and 20050524 on FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE appear not to translate UNIX  
path names correctly, causing some applications to fail.   
   
All Blizzard game updater applications I've tried have produced this error.  
   
(StarCraft, Diablo II, World of WarCraft):  
  
fixme:msvcrt:_spawnve :not translating name /usr/local/bin/wine to locate  
program  
wine: cannot find 'c:\Diablo'  
  
It seems that spaces are not being handled properly, as the real path is 'c: 
\Diablo II', not c:\Diablo.  
  
Same goes for World of WarCraft. I get "wine: cannot find 'c:\Program'" when  
the real path is "c:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\"  
  
As I don't know much C, I do not have a patch or fix for this problem. 
However, I am more than willing to test patches that are created.
