Wine-doors is an application designed to assist users in obtaining, installing, uninstalling and working around the caveats associated with wine applications.
Although wine doors is intended to be a replacement for winetools it is not limited to release cycles for the applications available to install, instead a web service will be provided, this web service will serve XML Pack Lists and Application Packs as well as various other resources.
Using a web service to connect users to applications means the service can be community managed thus splitting application installation and configuration from the user interface used to install the applications.
Installation:

sudo python setup.py install
The two options --prefix=/prefix/path and --config=/config/path are supported and should be identical on install/uninstall the defaults are /usr and /etc

· gtk+
