Public bug reported:

I'm using Cairo Dock v.2.1.1 (2.1.1-0stable1) in OpenGL mode and Ubuntu
Karmic Koala RC (up to date) / Gnome and I cannot make it to launch Wine
applications because of their path.

Example: I was trying to add a custom launcher with the following path:
/home/andrei/.wine/dosdevices/c:/Program Files/fscapture.exe (Tried to
add Wine in front of the path, env WINEPREFIX and nothing changed). When
clicking the Launcher, nothing occurs.

I created a bash script to run it, in the same location and that didn't
work either.


Then I moved the script to /home/andrei/scripts and added it to the custom launcher and it worked. So it must be because of /c:/ in the path or something...
