--- Comment #3 from Jacek Caban <jacek at codeweavers.com> ---
TestBot uses MSI files, which requires those MSI files to be processed and
installed into Wine prefix on prefix update. Support for that has always been
present for a long time and is still supported. However, we now allow Mono and
Gecko to be installed globally. Wine can use the global instead of per-prefix
installation, so those installation steps are skipped during prefix creation.
To use that, you'd need to extract archives [1], [2] and [3] into the same
place as you'd previously put MSI files.
