Wine version : 1.1.23
Distribution : Fedora
Distribution Version : 11 (32 bit)
Graphics card : Nvidia, GeForce 9xxx
Drivers of the graphics card : 185.18.14

Icon for the game:

Hi NSLW,

I've got a suggestion for your script: I see that it depends on icoutils which isn't a dependency of POL itself. So shouldn't you add the check_one and POL_SetupWindow_missing couple of commands to warn the user if the icoutils aren't installed ?

Bye

Hi Ghostofkendo,
wouldn't that check cause installation break?
I don't want to stop installation just because iconutils is required for extracting icon and if there is no iconutils then the only result will be not having nice icon for the game

Indeed, using these commands would stop the installation if icoutils aren't installed.
Since you'd prefer to avoid quitting the installation only for that, I would suggest to just add a little warning message at the beginning, telling the user to install these utils before running the script if he wants the icon.

Just a last little note: in your warning message, you wrote "iconutils" instead of "icoutils"
