            Bug ID: 45456
           Summary: winemenubuilder: Does not use "WINELOADER" environment
                    variable
           Product: Wine
           Version: 3.11
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: wine-bugs at winehq.org
          Reporter: dev at tng247.com
      Distribution: ---

Currently wine creates *.desktop files which (incorrectly?) assume the only
instance of "wine" is installed within the "PATH" environment variable and
ignore the users preference defined within the "WINELOADER" environment
variable (multiple Wine installations):

Looking at "winemenubuilder.c" it appears lines 1464 and 2505 are causing this
issue:

Would something like this be eligible for a point release patch? It's a blocker
for an application we're working on.

Many thanks in advance.
