Hello,


I am trying to install Nextion LTS software and the installer hangs while installing microsoft fonts.

It displays "Downloading andale32.exe..." and hangs.

I have found file .PlayOnLinux/tmp/script
The reason for hanging is pretty obvious:

  $POL_WGET "https://netix.dl.sourceforge.net/project/corefonts/the%20fonts/final/$font" || return 1

This URL is inaccessible.  The correct URL prefix is https://sourceforge.net/projects/corefonts/files/the%20fonts/final/

But how can I change the URL? If I modify the .PlayOnLinux/tmp/script, I see no effect - my modifications are not being executed.

Could you help me with this? May be I should file a bug report?

Thanks in advance!
