# `protontricks_deps_unofficial`

These are unofficial binary wheels for the dependencies of
[protontricks](https://pypi.org/project/protontricks/): namely, the `winetricks`
script and transitively `cabextract`.

# Why?

SteamOS is immutable and I didn't in fact want to download a ≈1 GiB flatpak for
a Python script and a shell script so I made a `venv` in my home directory only
to realize I need to compile `cabextract` on another computer and then copy it
to my home directory.

This just lets me install them via PIP.

# Usage

In your terminal…

## First time

```bash
python3 -m venv venv
source ./venv/bin/activate
pip3 install protontricks protontricks_deps_unofficial
```

## Subsequent Uses

```bash
source ./venv/bin/activate
protontricks […]
```
