Failure to install quartz

[NateTheGreat001]

When I try to install quartz I get this error:

---

SHA256 mismatch!

This is often the result of an updated package such as vcrun2019.
If you are willing to accept the risk, you can bypass this check.
Alternatively, you may use the --force option to ignore this check entirely.

Continue anyway?

If I choose to continue I immediately get this:

Note: command cabextract -q -d /home/nate/.wine/dosdevices/c:/windows/temp -L -F x86_microsoft-windows-directshow-core_31bf3856ad364e35_6.1.7601.17514_none_a877a1cc4c284497/quartz.dll /home/nate/.cache/winetricks/win7sp1/windows6.1-KB976932-X86.exe returned status 1. Aborting.

Thank you in advance

I encounter the same problem when trying to install arial font with winetricks :

$ winetricks

I do encounter the SHA256 mismatch problem, and the --force option leads eventually to this :
$ winetricks --force

Executing cabextract -q -d /home/[edited]/.wine/dosdevices/c:/windows/temp /home/[edited]/.cache/winetricks/corefonts/arial32.exe
/home/[edited]/.cache/winetricks/corefonts/arial32.exe: no valid cabinets found

Which then makes the operation abort with status 1.

BUT when I perform

$ winetricks arial

None of this happens and it seems to be working.

That might be due to #2118

[NateTheGreat001]

Is there any workaround?

[ArnaudValette]

Are you running "winetricks" and then using the gui to download quartz or are you using "winetricks quartz" ?
Try both and tell us if there's any difference.

[NateTheGreat001]

It actually works to do winetricks quartz. Thank you mate

[ArnaudValette]

That's good news, you're welcome !
I don't know how this stuff is implemented, but I find it weird that the winetricks GUI doesn't simply call the same scripts that you form by doing "winetricks someComponent".
