I am trying to install Borderlands 2 in Wine. This worked before, but now Wine is being uncooperative.
I made a new wineprefix with:
mkdir bl2
WINEPREFIX="$HOME/bl2" winetricks steamThe winetricks command results in
Executing w_do_call steam
steam already installed, skippingI tried deleting (rm -r) and recreating the wineprefix directory multiple times, but that does not help.
However, I can winetricks other items such as corefonts in the new wineprefixes, steam is the only one that gives the errors.

Do you have steam installed in your default prefix? The WINEPREFIX variable is probably not passed on, try:
#create a prefix first
mkdir "$HOME/bl2";
env WINEPREFIX="$HOME/bl2" winecfg;
#install steam
env WINEPREFIX="$HOME/bl2" winetricks steam;
#or
export WINEPREFIX="$HOME/bl2"; winetricks steam;Offline
No, I do not have steam installed in the default prefix. I deleted ~/.wine a while ago, I don't use it.
I tried env and export, it doesn't make a difference.

Try the 1.7.17 version, if you have the latest wine. There have been some problems with it. Maybe steam uses files outside of the prefix now, and those might cause your problem. You can always try to force the install with --force.

rm -rf ~/.local/share/wineprefixes worked.
Apparently when I winetricks steam it automatically sets the wineprefix to ~/.local/share/wineprefixes/steam, so deleting that folder might also work.
