@asie I find that Wine frontends are much worse than the packaging situation, when it comes to perpetuating and causing "problems that shouldn't even exist". The common practice of giving every app it's own prefix seems to mostly be a workaround for Wine's inability to handle DLL Hell conflicts, and everything else they do could probably be implemented as plugins for your file manager/program launcher/system tray/etc. It's supposed to be one of the pillars of universal Linux adoption (especially for gaming) yet is always treated as a wierd crutch rather than a proper environment.
