            Bug ID: 50778
           Summary: TortoiseMerge closes before showing a window
           Product: Wine
           Version: 6.3
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2

Terminal log for TortoiseMerge startup and subsequent closing with wine

Steps to reproduce:

1. Install TortoiseSVN in a 64-bit wine prefix.
2. Try to run TortoiseMerge.exe with the wine prefix mentioned in step 1.  For
example, run "wine TortoiseMerge.exe" from a terminal if the default wine
prefix was used.

Current behavior:

TortoiseMerge closes before showing a window.  No TortoiseMerge window appears.

Expected behavior:

TortoiseMerge is expected to start, allowing the user to compare and merge
files in a windowed GUI.

Additional information:

A download for the current version of the TortoiseSVN installer as of this
report is at
https://osdn.net/projects/tortoisesvn/storage/1.14.1/Application/TortoiseSVN-1.14.1.29085-x64-svn-1.14.1.msi/

A log showing terminal output when trying to run "wine TortoiseMerge.exe" is
attached.

Opinion:

This is one of 2 bugs preventing using TortoiseSVN fully in wine.  The other is
50756.  If these 2 bugs are fixed, TortoiseSVN could be used fully, easing the
transition of users whose jobs rely on SVN to Linux.  Currently some companies
still use SVN and I've tried all the free SVN clients for Linux, and none of
them come close to the level of convenience and intuitiveness that TortoiseSVN
provides.  I have nemo actions ready to enable full usage in of TortoiseSVN in
Linux if these 2 bugs are fixed.  This would help me personally tremendously,
as digging through old revisions in alternate SVN branches is part of my job
and extremely difficult with any SVN client other than TortoiseSVN using
TortoiseMerge.  Thanks for reading this.
