On my Kubuntu 8.04.1, I've noticed that kcmwineconfig (System
settings>Advanced>Windows Applications) does not load if a .wine directory is
already present. So it is impossible to modify wine settings using this
integrated tool. It is necessary to use the winecfg utility. If I remove the
.wine directory and start kcmwineconfig, I can setup wine, but then when I
close kcontrol and open it back again, it can't load it.
Starting kcontrol from the console and selecting the Windows Applications tool
when a .wine directory is already present, it is not opened and in the console
the following messages appear:
Pythonize constructor -- pid = 12441
Python interpreter initialized!
Pythonize constructor -- pid = 12441
Warning: could not find DOS drive for current working directory
'/home/andreak', starting in the Windows directory.
Traceback (most recent call last):

;
Ideally it should be possible to use both this integrated tool and the
wineconfig one without having such issues.
Do you agree?

PS I don't know if "System settings>Advanced>Windows Applications" is
the correct one, I have obatined it by traslating the Italian one
"Impostazioni di sistema > Advanced > Applicazioni Windows"
