I ran the command export WINEPREFIX="~/.wine_custom" in an attempt to make a wineprefix to get a game working. However, no output was made, so I assumed it worked. However, when I used the next command, winetricks corefonts dxvk dotnet472, I got this output:
------------------------------------------------------
warning: Your version of wine is no longer supported upstream. You should upgrade to 5.x
------------------------------------------------------
Executing mkdir -p ~
ls: cannot access '~/.wine_custom/drive_c': No such file or directory
grep: ~/.wine_custom/*.reg: No such file or directory
------------------------------------------------------
WINEPREFIX INFO:
Drive C:
Registry info:
~/.wine_custom/*.reg:
warning: wine cmd.exe /c echo '%AppData%' returned empty string, error message "wine: invalid directory ~/.wine_custom in WINEPREFIX: not an absolute path"
What did I do wrong?
Edit: After a bit of experimentation, I got the first command to work. but I now have a different output with the 2nd command.
Executing mkdir -p /home/username mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/home/username’: Permission denied
warning: Note: command mkdir -p /home/username returned status 1. Aborting.
How do I give permission to the command?
~doesn't expand when quoted - see related Why does mkdir fail (no such file or directory) in a script with BIN_DIR="~/bin/"? – steeldriver Dec 21 '21 at 01:24WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.wine_custom" wine winebootand thenwinetricks corefonts dxvk dotnet472. – Liso Dec 21 '21 at 01:27
