[Wine] X11 location for wine...

[doh123]

Not sure anyone can assist me with this, but thought it might be worth asking.... hoping someone can point me in the right direction.

This is probably something that only effects Macs, since X11 is an extra app, and comes in multiple versions and installed to different locations, and can have more than one on the machine at the same time...

When I compile Wine, the X11 driver is hard coded looking for X11 loaded from a specific location...

so say my default X11 is in /usr/X11  Wine is built looking for it there.  If I have a better/different X11 built in /opt/X11, Wine cannot use it without having to recompile Wine to look for /opt/X11.... it can't change locations.  I tried Symlinks hoping it would work, but nothing...  This also breaks trying to move the same Wine build from Mac to Mac when X11 is in a different location.... Wine fails because the correct libraries are not listed as being loaded.

There has to be a way to get Wine to not look at a hard coded location... I know this since Codeweavers has no problem with their Wine built in Crossover working fine moving its built in X11 anywhere on the machine, and wine still uses it fine.

Anyone have any clue where I'd start trying to get it so a single Wine install doesn't have the winex11.drv hard coded to a specific X11 location?  or is this a unavoidable limit in Wine that would take source code changes.. that maybe Codeweavers does themselves.

I do not mind if it looks for a specific location if it isn't relative to root... like it if always looks in ../../../X11/lib   or whatever...

or maybe I'm just building Wine wrong somehow and it shouldn't be doing this?
