No.. and 2.1.1.10b1 doesnt work under wine, either.. and I havent booted into windows in a while (still futzin with tryin to get my custom kernel + nvidia driver to work)
break19
It may be helpful to include the linux distro - it's version - vine version - ....
It may work under Debian and may break under gentoo.
Trying the 2.1.1.11 beta. I like it a lot - especially how it shows unknown addons in a single list, with suggested matches for the user to consider.
I do kind of think that having both "ignore" and "unknown" states for addons is redundant. Throwing ignored addons back into the unknown list may work just as well as having to store a separate/additional flag for "ignored".
I wasn't able to change back to showing version numbers after making it show dates. I did try closing and re-opening the client after saving the option change.
Also, "primary" and "alternate" are bad descriptions for the externals mode setting.
The detection of modified addons is great, although it kind of falls down for Skinner since you are expected to move files around to make it work. That doesn't hurt anything though since it still shows when updates are available.
Oh, the non-dirty updating is nice too, although I'm surprised that there's no setting for it as far as I can tell.
Lastly, a couple of times when I launched it the window went blank and didn't correct itself until I resized it (gave me flashbacks to Omen2).
I like the new curse client, it works perfectly, but I don't know why bugsack keep updating each time (the local version is lost each time the addon are updated)
Also is it possible to ignore installing some librairies when in no-lib mod (like libstub, callback-handler, LibDBIcon-1.0)
It also seems that when in no-lib mode it reinstall all librairies of the updated mod even if I already have the library and it does not need to be updated if so it waste time and bandwidth :)
Okay, might just be me that blind, but is there still no option for no-lib?
In "Manage Games", "World of Warcraft", "External Preference" => "Alternate".
This works *except* it reinstalls all externals for each main addon that is installed/updated, e.g. if you update 5 addons that depends on Ace3, Ace3 gets reinstalled 5 times. That is really overkill IMHO...
(And that damn right-click menu still hides as soon as it appears on Ubuntu 8.10 + Wine 1.0.1 using the metacity WM. Anyone else having this issue ?)

for whatever reason it's not being able to write to it.
What os are you running,
What perms are on the temp folder. Does the user you're running the client as have perms to write to the temp folder?
OS is WinXP SP3(not english version)
TEMP is point to Ramdisk/TEMP
I always use admin to avoid write permission problems.
Even I switch the TEMP folder back to harddisk, it still refuse to write. Others apps can access the TEMP normally, Winrar, chrome cache etc.
Curse updater is also running with admin rights.
More details here, after curse updater try to update addons, the addon zip files can be written into the TEMP folders. But when decompressing it, errors popup says folders can't be created. This means it's not write permission, directories creation fails while updater try to decompress
Can we get the option to search for an install lib's ourself? I am running it as no-lib but some addon's I use don't seem to have their no-lib version set up correctly and so some libs don't download and I am forced to download the zip from the curse site and cut and paste the lib folder out of it to get the addon's to work.

Actually it seems this happens only under certain conditions. I would file a ticket if I could have it to happen again.

Yay, finally get things that really work:D
Errors when installing addons
In "Manage Games", "World of Warcraft", "External Preference" => "Alternate".
This works *except* it reinstalls all externals for each main addon that is installed/updated, e.g. if you update 5 addons that depends on Ace3, Ace3 gets reinstalled 5 times. That is really overkill IMHO...

All "second level" dropdowns are "gidden" for me untill i acruallu move the muse over where they should be, then they show up (Win XP Pro).
I now have a repeatable crash when 'Scanning local directories' during startup.
[edit]
Cleared itself in the end, most odd.
Sounds like your temp directory is missing, do you normally use some sort of cleaner app or similar?
I'll get the external thing fixed.
Really? Hrm, my testing environment is XPSP3 and I've not seen this. Can anyone else confirm?
Under your app data folder you'll see one for the client. There may be something in one of the .log files.
Any error info given in the popup would be helpful. Also check your wow directory make sure it's correct and valid.
Maybe related to windowsblinds?
I'd give that a probably, could you try disabling it and see if it still happens?
TEMP folder located in ramdisk
I have tried to use temp folder in harddisk after those errors, but the same thing happens.
for whatever reason it's not being able to write to it.
What os are you running,
What perms are on the temp folder. Does the user you're running the client as have perms to write to the temp folder?

This might have been an incidental side affect of a bug that we fixed in the hotfix last night.
