Bug#943894: wine-development: stopped finding dll in program directories

[Norbert Preining <norbert@preining.info>]

Package: wine-development
Version: 4.18-1
Severity: important

Hi,

with the upgrade to 4.18 suddenly none of my programs work anymore. The
errors I get are always related to not finding dlls:

For example
	$ env LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8 WINEPREFIX="/home/norbert/.wine-kashmir" wine64 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Kashmir\Kash.exe'
	002b:err:module:import_dll Library Miscsrv.dll (which is needed by L"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Kashmir\\Kash.exe") not found
	002b:err:module:import_dll Library Msssrv.dll (which is needed by L"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Kashmir\\Kash.exe") not found
	002b:err:module:import_dll Library rbdwin.dll (which is needed by L"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Kashmir\\Kash.exe") not found
	002b:err:module:import_dll Library R3ddoif.dll (which is needed by L"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Kashmir\\Kash.exe") not found
	002b:err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Importing dlls for L"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Kashmir\\Kash.exe" failed, status c0000135
	$
But the missing DLLs are all available in 'C:\Program Files
(x86)\Kashmir\Kash.exe':
	$ ls .wine-kashmir/drive_c/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/Kashmir/*.dll
	'.wine-kashmir/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Kashmir/Miscsrv.dll'
	'.wine-kashmir/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Kashmir/Msssrv.dll'
	'.wine-kashmir/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Kashmir/PluginIf.dll'
	'.wine-kashmir/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Kashmir/R3ddoif.dll'
	'.wine-kashmir/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Kashmir/R3dximp.dll'
	'.wine-kashmir/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Kashmir/Rbdwin.dll'
	$

This was working at least till about some weeks ago, and changed with
4.18, is my strong guess.

Is this change to be expected, and if yes, how would one work around
this? On a real-metal windows this problem does not occur.

Best

Norbert
