Update and fix cnc-ddraw

[Root-Core]

The current implementation fails, if ddraw.dll is a symlink - like in Proton-GE.

You can't use ${file1} here it will fail spellcheck that's why I'd not been using it already.

[Root-Core]

I checked, why it fails and src/linkcheck.sh isn't failing, but tests/shell-checks.
This is fixed in #2204.

If special changes are required for GE-Proton that should really be handled within umu-protonfixes, I've never seen any complaints of simply unpacking the archive caused any Linux users issues so I'll assume this would be Proton specific.

Nah. This is why there is the w_try_cp_dll() function in first place and it is used for other dlls.

winetricks/src/winetricks

Lines 748 to 751 in f87bf9e

	# Copy $1 into $2. If $2 is found to be a symbolic link, it will be removed first.
	# This solve a problem of dlls being symbolic links on some versions or variants of wine.
	# We want to replace the symbolic link and not copy into its target.
	w_try_cp_dll()

I don't see a single reason it shouldn't be used here.

Yes using w_try_cp_dll() would indeed be valid, is wine on Linux using symlinks more heavily now for prefixes?

The Linux specific comment was more aimed at the usage of -u but I see you’ve added thumbs up to both my other comments.

Something that might be worth noting is if something is platform specific (not project specific like Proton) it could always be placed behind a platform guard like I’ve done for the Steam verb for macOS.

I think so. I'm not using wine directly that much though. I know Proton-GE and Lutris are using it.
I also searched for symlinks in prefixes that use the Proton provided by Steam and they make heavy use out of it.
It makes sense to me, as you don't have to duplicate all files and by replacing a symlink with a file - like in this case - only affects a singular prefix.

I will fix it soon. I have only little experience with BSD / MacOS, so I missed that.

I thought an update might be a good thing, but we could just delete files in order to update them.. if necessary.
Afaik there isn't really a mechanism to update a fix to a newer version what so ever, so just forget what I just said. :)

Good to know, but I don't think that's necessary here. This fix should work on all platforms.

Updated to v6.8.0.0, could we please merge after #2204 is accepted?
