           Summary: Wine removes custom drive mappings
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.40
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: sub.mesa at gmail.com


Wine appears to be forgetting or removing my drive mappings. I have an NFS
filesystem mouned on /nfs, i am the owner of that directory with appropriate
write permissions. I do something like this:

# create new wine directory
mkdir /nfs/winetest

# populate wine directory
WINEPREFIX=/nfs/winetest/ winecfg

# Now i go to Drives tab, make a new D-drive, set it to /nfs, then click Apply
# close winecfg
# when i launch winecfg again, the /nfs D-drive is still there
# so far so good

# now launch some random application on the NFS-mount
cd /nfs/
WINEPREFIX=/nfs/winetest/ wine "D:\\prip\\setup.exe"

# result: wine: module not found; application does not start properly
# now check winecfg again:
WINEPREFIX=/nfs/winetest/ winecfg
# now our D-drive mapping isn't set to anything; its empty. 

So it appears wine removes my custom drive mappings whenever an application is
launched or tries to access its DLLs located there. If i did something wrong,
i'm not aware of it. Wine should just accept the D-drive and launch the
application, not removing my drive mapping.

I also tested without using NFS; on my home directory.

mkdir ~/winetest
mkdir ~/driveD
WINEPREFIX=/home/<user>/winetest winecfg
# set drive D to map to /home/<user>/driveD/ type Local Disk
# click apply & close winecfg
cp -p ~/nfs/prip/setup.exe ~/driveD/
WINEPREFIX=/home/<user>/winetest/ wine "D:\\setup.exe"
# result: fails again, drive D gone.

I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 64-bit, wine 1.1.40 per winehq.org PPA; no modifications.
The latest .41 versions is not in your PPA yet, so i can't test. Can anyone
confirm this bug?
