            Bug ID: 41668
           Summary: wineboot mishandles user dir symlinks during update
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.9.22
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: programs
          Assignee: wine-bugs at winehq.org
          Reporter: galtgendo at o2.pl
      Distribution: ---

In a standard wine prefix 'Desktop', 'My Documents', etc. are symlinks to
${HOME}.
As are their localized versions.

I consider the first a wrong choice and and make those normal dirs in the
prefix; as for the second, I turn those into symlinks to their English
counterparts.

Yet...

Upon 'wineboot' at each wine update, while the English dirs stay untouched, the
localized symlinks get reset into ${HOME} symlinks.

If it's WAD, it's a misfeature; otherwise, it's a bug.
